| Description: |
In this 1952 film, set on the high seas of the Carribean in 1674, Robert Maynard (Keith Andes) hopes to win a large reward by proving that Sir Henry Morgan (Torin Thatcher), a Jamaican high official, still dabbles in piracy. Maynard goes undercover as ship's surgeon with a Morgan henchman...who's been supplanted by the notorious Edward Teach (Robert Newton), Blackbeard himself. Linda Darnell plays Edwina Mansfield, seemingly a damsel in distress, to whom there's much more than meets the eye. |
