Both she and her sister, Joan Fontaine, were beautiful young women. Their sibling rivalry was legendary.

Definitely one of the great movies in every respect: story, casting, direction,
production. They truly don't make 'em like this anymore (***sad trombone***).
And Olivia is absolutely adorable. Errol Flynn? Today they give us girly-men
like Leonardo Di Caprio instead -- yech!

Turner Classic Movies had a show on how color was developed in the movies. I thought it was very good.

The sword fight between Flynn and Rathbone was epic in the history of cinema. And yes, Olivia DeHavilland was lovely and warm

Hollywood had truly interesting and stunningly beautiful/handsome stars during the Golden Age. Even the character actors were memorable.

There were great directors, excellent screen writers, imaginative costume designers, fantastic music composers!

Who doesn't remember Maurice Jarre’s score as the sun drenched desert sweeps before you in Lawrence of Arabia? Or the cinematography of the POWs as they march to attention as Col. Bogey is playing in the background in The Bridge Over the River Kwai? Who doesn't remember the beginning minutes of both Star Wars and Raiders of the Ark? Those were movies moments that hundreds of millions of movie goers enjoyed all within weeks of each other. Now Hollywood has become boringly repetitive with less than exciting actors, directors, etc.

I love this movie. I have the “Sherwood Forest” fanfare as a notification sound on my iPhone.

This and Captain Blood are two of my favorites with Flynn, de Havilland and Rathbone in them.

The horse that Olivis rides in the movie was later sold to Roy Rogers, who renamed him “Trigger.”

Errol Flynn tried to get into Olivia’s pants when they were filming the movie but she says she was uninterested.
