  • Starring: Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland
  • Summary: The great Hollywood swashbuckler and the very definition of classic Technicolor design. Warners has used digital technology to perfectly register Robin Hood's original Technicolor negatives, restoring its vibrant color: the reddest reds, the bluest blues, and of course, the greenest greens.

    Only a spirited and extravagant production could do justice to the Robin Hood legend; this film is more than equal to the task. Korngold's score won a well-deserved Oscar, as did the editing and art direction.

    Made with sublime innocence and breathtaking artistry, at a time when its simple values rang true.

    Robin Hood is movie pageantry at its best, done in the grand manner of silent spectacles, brimming over with the sort of primitive energy that drew people to the movies in the first place.

    Is it a silly movie? At times, yes. Is it creaky and blatant and obvious? Quite often, absolutely. But should you miss it in this splendidly colorful restoration? Not on your life.

    Poor, silly RogerW. This is not the Robin Hood directed by Ridley Scott, this is the classic and stellar Robin Hood directed by Curtiz. Sometimes I truly wonder if anything this generation is a significant contribution to cinema, or if t he vast majority of films are mass produced piles of crap. Classic films like this might not be as whiz bang as the current releases, but it seems the the budget and focus could go into the actors and the scripts.… Expand
