Editorial Review:
Description:
Lighthearted adventure about an overlord, Count Ulrich - who takes it one step too far. It was bad enough when he kidnapped the pretty wife of the young archer Dardo. But when Ulrich takes the man's son - a rebel leader is born.
Amazon.com:
Still in his first flush of muscular stardom, Burt Lancaster romps through this costume adventure in full awareness of his movie-star dazzle. The story is a Robin Hood-tinged yarn set in 12-century Lombardy, where ace archer Lancaster finds himself an unlikely rebel leader against the evil lord (Frank Allenby)--actually, our hero just wants to get his kidnapped son back. Oh, and maybe win the hand of the fair Virginia Mayo. Nobody from director Jacques Tourneur on down seems to have taken the story very seriously, which leaves plenty of room for the odd strolling minstrel (Norman Lloyd in puckish form), good-bad romantic rival (Robert Douglas), or mute sidekick. The latter is played by Nick Cravat, the stumpy and swarthy acrobat who had performed alongside Lancaster in their circus careers (he would return in The Crimson Pirate, the best-known of Lancaster's swashbucklers). Here, the two men execute a series of glorious physical stunts, showing off their crack timing and willingness to risk life and limb. That's really the appeal of the picture, along with Ernest Haller's Oscar-nominated Technicolor photography and the lavish Italy-by-way-of-Burbank studio sets. --Robert Horton

Burt Lancaster and Virginia Mayo are wonderful in this movie, as are all the supporting cast members. I saw this film on television as a young girl, and have loved it ever since. I introduced my own son to this movie in the early 80's. He's now 30 plus and it's still one of his favorites. These older movies have such clever dialogue, such as when one of the villains in this film is described as "...that jaundiced excretion of a bilious toad's eye!" That's a line my son memorized well before he ... Read More

Burt Lancaster exploded upon the screen in the 1946 film noir THE KILLERS. For the remainder of the decade film noir was Lancasters' stock in trade with such classics as BRUTE FORCE and SORRY,WRONG NUMBER. In 1950 however, Burt made a sharp left turn when he combined his extraordinary acrobatic ability with this tongue-in-cheek swashbuckler which (literally) vaulted him to new heights. (Warner Bros. offered a million dollar "reward" to anybody who could prove that Lancaster did not do his own stunts.) ... Read More

When I was a kid, "The Flame and the Arrow" was a staple at the Saturday matinee and I'm pleased to discover after 50 years, the film has not lost any of its wit or excitement, as much of a treat for adults as it is for children. It features Burt Lancaster, with the build of a Greek statue, at his handsomest and sassiest, those pearly whites glistening for the camera, and the beautiful Virgina Mayo, who also comes across as being carved from the finest Carrera marble.
Among the treats are watching ... Read More
