In this account Captain Kidd is already a clever ruthless pirate when in 1699, he tricks the king into commissioning him as the escort for a treasure ship from India. He enlists a crew of pardoned cutthroats, one of whom he had hoped to never see again. Let the treachery begin. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)
Recensie (1)
Charles Laughton is such a talented actor that he can beautifully carry even in this otherwise somewhat rough pirate drama, especially when the scenes on the ship aren't particularly great. Interiors are what this film excels in, and it benefits greatly from the acting mastery not only of the main protagonist but also of the other characters. ()
