Captain Kidd | Randolph Scott, Charles Laughton
Показать описание
(1945) The unhistorical adventures of pirate Captain Kidd revolve around treasure and treachery.
Like THE SON OF MONTE CRISTO (1940), the film starts off well enough and is enjoyable in itself, but peters out towards the end. Charles Laughton (who reprised the role in ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET CAPTAIN KIDD [1952]) is certainly fun as the title villain, and it was especially gratifying to watch him interact with John Carradine; the great cast features innumerable other familiar faces, though Randolph Scott seems positively ill-at-ease in pirate garb
Director: Rowland V. Lee
Writers: Norman Reilly Raine, Robert N. Lee
Starring: Charles Laughton, Randolph Scott, Barbara Britton
