Rarely seen Errol Flynn vehicle in which he both scripted and starred. It tells the story of murder and corruption in 1860 New Orleans and despite having been shot in France, provides some of the worst French dialects one could ever witness. Far more of a melodrama than said adventure it requires some patience to view in full but is well worth it. A young Vincent Price menaces the aging Flynn who was rumoured to have been whacked clear out of his skull on opium during production, with Agnes Moorehead and Micheline Prelle rounding out the cast. Anything with Price in it is always worth a look and when you add Flynn to the mix it makes it twice so. Errol delivers this priceless line in a tavern...."Emile, stop twitching. How do you expect me to read my paper while you keep twitching?". An interesting bit of trivia concerning Flynn....he died of a heart attack on his yacht at age 50 in Vancouver, British Columbia and is credited with the famous quote "I like my whiskey old and my women young" which might explain the three statutory rape charges he was slapped with.
