This is a gorgeous Technicolor film for 1941. While it is not a great movie, it’s a
fine one. And it doesn’t hurt to have Errol Flynn as the star! A pleasant surprise was to
see a very young Craig Stevens (later famous for his role as Peter Gunn on television). I
recognized the voice more than the face. When I tested my wife to see if she recognized
him, she couldn’t guess. Then I hummed the Peter Gunn theme and she finally got it! We
always thought in that series that he was a Cary Grant clone with that similar haircut style
and voice mannerisms!
