This is one of those ´Golden Era´ treats that had everything going for it, from excellent acting, crisp repartee, wonderful villains ( George Sanders, and Anthony Quinn ), excellent action, and fiery romance. The cinematography is not half-bad either. Pirate movies just didn´t get much better than this.. And summed up by saying NEVER A DULL MOMENT. Currently The Black Swan has an overall rating of 8 over 10.

Packed with â??action, excitement, thundering guns and a maiden in distressâ? (Variety), this â??brawny, blood-curdlingâ?
