Refreshing pirate film with Jean Peters (Pickup on South Street, Three Coins in the Fountain, Viva Zapata) on zesty form as a pirate captain, who can out-duel Blackbeard (Thomas Gomez). Yes, an eclectic cast, with Herbert Marshall, James Robertson Justice (rubbish Scots accent), Debra Paget, Louis Jourdan.
Shot in swarthy Technicolor by Harry Jackson, music by Franz Waxman.
"Harlot's trumpery!" Fox.
