Crimson Pirate

Burt Lancaster plays the title role in this caution-to-the-winds adventure comedy filled to the top-mast with devilish derring-do and hearty goofiness. Possessed of keen acrobatic agility from his pre-acting circus days, Lancaster embodies all The Crimson Pirate is about: Escapist fare that’s contagious fun.

Zestily directed by Robert Siodmak (the suspense master of The Spiral Staircase and The Killers in a robust change of pace), The Crimson Pirate also boasts the treasures of lovely Eva Bartok, lively Nick Cravat (Lancaster’s boyhood chum and ex-circus partner), gorgeous location filming and a playful William Alwyn score. It’s nothing less than an edge-of-your-seat joyride. Heave-to, mates!
