2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing DVD edition, August 7, 2007
This review is from: Douglas Fairbanks - The Black Pirate (DVD)
I saw this film first by ordering from Netflix, then decided to buy. This edition is all black and white, although the film was originally one of the first technicolor films, something Fairbanks worked very hard to achieve. The music score on this DVD is terrible - they play Grieg's Holberg Suite, which is totally out of character and has nothing to do with what's happening on screen. The film itself is great, one of Fairbank's best, but spend a few more dollars and get the Kino Video version.

3.0 out of 5 stars B&W, not restored color, August 2, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Douglas Fairbanks - The Black Pirate (DVD)
Although this was one of the first films released in Technicolor, there is no color in this DVD release. The transfer quality is average, at best, and there are not any DVD extras (I was hoping for something about the color version).

It's a good movie if you're interested in the silent era, and has some very good stunt scenes. I did find some of the situations unrealistic, not unlike many "hero" movies of today.
