The Adventures of Robin HoodFollowing on from Jack L. Warner – The Last Mogul we are pleased to welcome acclaimed author and journalist ADAM FEINSTEIN to introduce The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938), in a rare 35mm presentation courtesy of Park Circus. Adam, a respected specialist in the work of director Michael Curtiz will talk about the making and legacy of a bona-fide Warner Bros classic. His introduction will be preceded by an event dedication with host Rebecca Nicole Williams.

Errol Flynn stars as Nottingham’s favourite son in Michael Curtiz’s swash-buckling epic, co-starring Olivia de Havilland, Basil Rathbone and Claude Rains, with a rousing score by Erich Wolfgang Korngold. A Technicolor delight, with many action set-pieces, the most memorable the swordfight between Flynn and Rathbone at the film’s climax.
