The Mark of Zorro on FMC

FMC is running Rouben Mamoulian's great 1940 swashbuckler this month. I place this second only to The Adventures of Robin Hood among the late `30's early `40's swashbucklers. Both films benefit from casting legitimately great swordsman Basil Rathbone in a key bad guy role. This one also benefits from the presence of Linda Darnell, who may very well have been the most beautiful of the classic screen sirens. Check it out.
