    Errol Flynn was Warner Bros answer to MGM's Clark Gable. A man's man. I first saw Captain Blood as an 11-year old boy on late-night TV and was captivated. I have been to Hobart, Tasmania, where he grew up. He was the real deal.

    It's crazy, production in the 40s Hollywood era are so immaculate and well done. Trying to replicate this today will probably cost way more than just CGI the whole thing. There's still some physical pieces today, but not on the scale in the past like this. The amount of extras, the laxed safety procedures... i get why they call this the golden era. They get away with a whole lot of stuff lmao

    And actually, some of this shots are from another Errol Flynn movie frome 5 years before, called Captain Blood. So even tho this secuence seems very expensive for the time (and it was), they actually reclycled a lot of shots to save money. In one of this shots you can actually see Errol Flynn in his character from the other movie.

    While there is some questionable costume design and weaponry in terms of historical accuracy, this is actually a decent depiction of a boarding action. Most movies have the crews spaced out in pairs evenly around the deck, having long duels with each other.

    “The Sea Hawk” 1940 Errol Flynn, pirate privateer of the English Crown & Queen Elizabeth I against Spain. Epic love story at the epicenter of swashbuckling. Warner Bros’ rebuttal to MGM’s Clark Gable & “Gone With The Wind.” Got up at 3:30 am to finish watching this DVD in order to get it back into the mailbox. Look at Flynn’s ship, a floating mansion, the most beautiful that ever sailed the azure main. Only a few “non sequitur” slip ups in the very clear & common sense story script.

    Hello every one, I wonder if anyone can help me. I'm looking for a scene witch I saw many years ago (maybe around 10). It was a Errol Flyn's movie, him being a pirate, he and his crew had just lost their ship in a battle. The scene (as i remember it) starts with a close-up of the captain (Errol Flyn) who is completely desolated, sitting on a log in a forest that they had managed to swim to. The camera then circles around the entire crew who are equally despondent and prostrate. When the camera gets back to the captain, he looks around to his crew and realizes their state of mind and that he is the one who has to resolve it. Then, energised by that idea, he gets up and starts shouting orders, to gather firewood, prepare shelters, etc. This was my first lesson in leadership and I would like to see it scene again. Please answer here with clues and/or a link to the scene.

    I think it is from Captain Blood, another Errol Flynn picture made 5 years prior. They used several shots from that to put on this, probably for budget reasons. The shot that gave it away for me is the one from behind one of the pirates shooting a rifle to the other ship. I though I have seen that shot before in another movie. This movie borrowed like 3 or 4 shots in succession from Captain Blood and in one of them you can see Errol Flynn in his character from the other movie.

    Western Costume Company supplied all the swords to hollywood for many movies...most of these cutlasses were Ames civil war swords. Most had so many knicks in them as to be useless to collectors. In 2000 WCC went bankrupt and sold the entire warehouse for 1.2 million. After the buyer broke it up and sold it on ebay he cleared 10 million. about 75% were authentic and the rest made by WCC. Civil war uniforms and indian artifacts were among the finest in the world.

    Yes. Jack Warner wanted to loan Bette Davis and Errol Flynn to David Selznick for the two leads in GWTW, but Bette Davis refused to be part of this package, or so the story goes. Also, Selznick was lukewarm on Bette Davis as Scarlett. I would love to see the scene in the library at Twelve Oaks, where Scarlett and Rhett meet, filmed with Vivien Leigh and Errol Flynn.
