Director: Ken Annakin
Cast: Richard Todd, Joan Rice, Peter Finch, James Hayter, James Robertson Justice, Martita Hunt, Hubert Gregg, Michael Hordern, Bill Owen, Anthony Eustrel, Reginald Tate, Elton Hayes, Patrick Barr, Anthony Forwood, Hal Osmond
Disney Studios made this Robin Hood story into a very enjoyable film, and filming in England adds to the strength of the story. Robin Hood (Richard Todd) devotes his life to helping the poor during the oppressive Prince John's (Hubert Gregg) reign when the Sheriff of Nottingham (Peter Finch) reeks havoc on the citizens. This is the story of Robin Hood, his merrie men, and his true love Maid Marian (Joan Rice) and their efforts to preserve the throne for King Richard (Patrick Barr). 1 User Review
