"After a nobleman and his son are marooned by pirates, the son (Douglas Fairbanks Sr.) swears revenge...by becoming the titular Black Pirate. This rollicking high seas adventure is one of the all time classics of the cutlass 'n' doubloon genre, and holds up amazingly well today; despite being silent,"
