The Black Pirate, 1926
USA
Profile of The Black Pirate
The mood of The Black Pirate is exciting. The plot centers around pirates, a folk hero, and a child in danger. It is an action, adventure, and period movie. Stylistically, The Black Pirate is a silent production and is epic. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. It takes place, at least partly, on a ship. The Black Pirate happens in the 1920s. Visually, it is black and white. It is especially suggested for a family outing and a boys' night.
Summary of The Black Pirate
This swashbuckling nautical adventure, starring the incomparable Douglas Fairbanks, made film history as one of the first full features shot entirely in Technicolor. Here, he plays a nobleman who wants to revenge his father's murder, so he boards a pirate vessel disguised as one of the thieving, villainous rapscallions, and sets about achieving his goal. On the high seas, the athletic Fairbanks provides a no-holds barred, rip-roaring, stunt-filled voyage -- complete with a one-man takeover of a merchant ship.
