100th Anniversary. Live musical accompaniment by Donald Sosin and Joanna SeatonAllan Dwan directs Douglas Fairbanks in one of the best of his swashbuckling epics. Filmed on a massive recreation of 12th-century Nottingham (formerly the Jesse Hampton studio in Santa Monica), this version notably begins with Fairbanks as a landed aristocrat, the Earl of Huntington, who only takes up his outlaw persona "Robin Hood" after returning from the Crusades to find King Richard's throne usurped by Prince John and the populace subjected to cruelty and deprivations. Hearty Alan Hale plays Little John, a role he would reprise in Warner Bros.' celebrated 1938 version starring Errol Flynn. DIR Allan Dwan; SCR/PROD Douglas Fairbanks. U.S., 1922, b&w, 143 min. Silent with English intertitles. NOT RATED
