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