The Adventures of Robin Hood: Robin Hood/Guy of Gisborne

Errol Flynn made his career out of swashbuckling, even if he wasn’t the greatest swordsman in the world. Luckily, Basil Rathbone usually made up for that. The final fight between Flynn’s Robin Hood and Rathbone’s Sir Guy of Gisborne is an iconic duel, with Robin and Sir Guy crossing swords and words with equal aplomb. Filmed in glorious Technicolor, and replete with sweating faces and wild thrusts, this fight reminds us why the thirties were the era of the great swashbucklers.
