A la suite d’une opulente célébration médiévale, le roi Richard part en Croisades, laissant son jeune frère le prince John comme régent. Ce dernier prend rapidement la forme d’un cruel, cupide et lâche tyran.

Co-written and produced by its leading man, Robin Hood might just be the greatest of Douglas Fairbanks’s star vehicles. Directed by the prolific Allan Dwan—here at the height of his silent-movie powers—this epic swashbuckling adventure lends heart and scale to the immortal romantic legend.
