Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Most sequels pale beside the originals. However, this follow-up to Douglas Fairbanks's surprise 1920 hit, The Mark of Zorro, is a welcome exception. Though again mining the Old California Robin Hood idea, it's better produced, it's better scripted, and it features the still-agile 42-year-old Fairbanks in not two, but three roles--playing Don Diego/Zorro as well as his own foppish son, Don Cesar de Vega. The big change here: Don Cesar's weapon of choice is the whip rather than the rapier. You can think of him as a forebear of the bullwhip-cracking Indiana Jones.
The setting shifts to Spain, where Don Cesar is falsely accused of murder. Tyranny's head again rears as our hero romances a very young Mary Astor and battles the series's most formidable foe yet, Donald Crisp's Don Sebastian.
With a more reasonable budget, Fairbanks was able to stage the fights and cliffhanger escapes that were beyond him the first time around. That's Warner Oland, the best of the Charlie Chans, as Archduke Paul and Jean Hersholt of Greed as Don Fabrique Borusta. --Glenn Lovell

As always, Kino has put out a marvelous DVD, this time featuring not just one but two classics. First up is 'The Mark of Zorro' (1920), the very first screen version of this famous oft-told tale of the masked bandit who fights injustice and the oppressors of the people in 19th century Spanish California. This film is special to me because it was the first Douglas Fairbanks, Sr., film I ever saw, though while it did make me want to see more of him, it didn't instantly make him into one of my favorite ...

If anyone doubts the temporal quality of fame, just think of Douglas Fairbanks to bring the point home. In his day, Douglas Fairbanks' fame was unprecedented. He and his wife, Mary Pickford, were thought of as America's royal family. Today, his marvelous action films are not watched save by film enthusiasts, and his face and name are lost to the youngest generation (if Jay Leno's "man on the street" interviews are any indication, our youngest Americans seem proud not to know the name of the Vice President, ...

While not as good as, say, Buster Keaton's The General, this is the best of the silent Zorro films. Buy the DVD that has both The Mark of Zorro and Don Q, Son of Zorro from King Video. "Mark" is entertaining, "Don Q" is even better. The original music by Jon C. Mirsalis for the two films is excellent.

amzing. doug can jump like noone else before or since. a few chase sequences to rival buster.
zorro is excellent filmmaking. It starts with a soldier with a z on his face explaining it's not his fault.For 16 minutes zorro remains offscreen. When he does finally appear it's really cool.
don q, son of zorro, is even more amazing. Five years after zorro and doug looks even more athletic.The plot is far more complicated, but better than zorro. I'll never look at Mary Astor in Maltese Falcon the same way ... Read More

Although Kino makes no boast about print quality on the box, its print of MARK OF ZORRO seems to be from an excellent 35 mm source. This film is the first, and many say the best, of Doug Fairbanks' swashbucklers that he personally financed and produced during the 1920s. His subsequent films were more elaborate - he seemed to rival DeMille in epic production quality - but ZORRO is the most consistently energetic. Fairbanks remains in a class by himself as a superstar and he became a multi-millionaire by acting ... Read More
