The Adventures of Robin Hood

[jds1911a1]

I added "The Sea Hawk" and "Captain Blood" to my Netflix Queue. Did you know they originally chose James Cagney to play Robin Hood? Seems weird after seeing Errol Flynn in the role. But then, I only know Cagney by sight and not by his skill. Maybe he could have been good.

He was a big name in 37-39 mostly know for tough guy urban characters. He had great chops but not for a period piece in England, I'm glad they didn't go that route it would have been like Prince of theives - just wrong
