Wissenswertes
Anjelica Huston never says a word in the movie.

Patzer
During Nick and Ned's limerick competition, Nick uses the word 'Khaki'. This word is from the Hindustani language and only entered in the English language in the 1840s, through the British Army in India. As 'Swashbuckler' is set in the 1700s, he could not have known the word. They could be saying the word "cocky", which is more probable because its first printed use was in the 1700s and its oral use was even earlier.

Zitate
Nick: There once was a maiden named Starkey who had an affair with a darkey. The result of her sins was quadruplets, not twins: One white, one black, and two khaki.
[Alternative final word]
Nick: cocky.

Alternative Versionen
There is a coda to the the theatrical release that is not in the TV, videotape, or DVD versions. The film ends on the deck of the "Blarney Cock" with Genevieve Bujold's character asking why the pirates paint the deck red. A pirate replies. "To hide the blood ma'am."

An unjustly buried film ...

... then and now.

Alright, I saw this flick as the opener for a circus in Radio City Music Hall on my first trip to NYC in 1976. I thought it grand then, and I haven't much changed my mind.

I do agree with those who think that a better villain and ingenue could have been found than Peter Boyle and Genevieve Bujold (one of the most overrated actresses of the time), but the Shaw-Jones pairing sparkles. I loved the score so much I bought the soundtrack on vinyl -- dare I hope that it may be out on CD somewhere? The flick isn't long on plot, really, but the cinematography and action are spiffy, the characterizations work, and man, is Geoffrey Holder a bad ass! It's a sprightly movie and you'll spend a fun time watching it. Who knows, you might even have limerick contests with your mates the next time you're escaping from the local militia.

Rating: 7/10
