| Cannons thunder, blades clatter and Erich Wolfgang KorngoId's incomparable music swirls and flourishes in The Sea Hawk. ln one of his best roles, Errol FIynn pIays Capt. Geoffrey Thorpe, who commandeers a 40-gun galIeon, endures captivity, then boIdly escapes to warn EngIand of Spain's armada. Working on his 10th of 12 movies with Flynn, MichaeI Curtiz masterfuIly directs the film's blend of royal intrigue and derring-do heroics - made on a then lavish $1.7 milIion-scale that incIuded construction of two fuII-sized ships. The film was stirringly topical in its day. When Queen EIizabeth exhorts her country to maintain fighting readiness against tyranny "now and forever," audiences knew forever had come: HitIer had launched his World War Il air siege of England. |
