The mo...I'm so glad you had a chance to see it. The movie is so well done, as a swashbuckling actioner and as a romance - the scene in the willows manages to be erotic without a hint of gratuity. Just a great movie.Black Vulmeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04270071699114783644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930065815010914887.post-74131136588815460022013-02-24T11:35:09.080-08:002013-02-24T11:35:09.080-08:00I read the Sea-Hawk last week.

My edition had that exact cover - which could be much better done. <br /><br />I also watched Bardelys the Magnificent Friday night. The film was surprisingly good. The makeup and acting is much more restrained than in many silent films. The scene in the beginning where Bardelys duels a jealous husband in front of the wife is histerically funny. Bardelys manages to reconcile the couple, force the husband to retreat out Bardelys door, and leaves them both happily waving goodby to Bardelys - all while he continues the duel. Truly magnificent.Socrates_Is_Mortalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11979487483897210762noreply@blogger.com
