Brief synopsis of Black Swan

After receiving the governorship of Jamaica, former pirate Henry Morgan--now Sir Henry Morgan--dispatches his able first mate, James Waring, to dispense of his former henchman, the red-headed villain Captain Billy Leech (George Sanders) and his fighting ship, the Black Swan. In the process, Waring, also a pirate turned loyal subject, abducts Margaret Denby (Maureen O’Hara), a young woman of aristocratic bearing. Margaret fights him tooth and nail up until a battle between Waring and Leech changes the way she feels about her captor. Power brings a winning mix of gallantry and roguishness into the role of Waring, while the film itself harbors the perfect recipe for entertainment between its passionate romance, lush photography, adventure on the high seas, and outlandish characters from both fact and fiction.

Rated - 4 starsGood old fashioned swashbuckler

A good, although now probably, outdated film. Maureen O'Hara and Tyrone Power are a pleasure to look at. A good Sunday afternoon armchair movie that you can actually enjoy without thinking too much. Lots of action and of course romance. If you want a film with a bit of fun then this is it.
