Eighteenth-century pirate Burt Lancaster and agile sidekick Nick Cravat team up with an eccentric inventor to lead a rebellion against an evil tyrant. Action-packed swashbuckler guaranteed to raise a smile - thanks to Lancaster's breath-taking performance - also starring James Hayter, Eva Bartok, Christopher Lee and Frederick Leicester.

Burt Lancaster plays a pirate with a taste for intrigue and acrobatics who involves himself in the goings on of a revolution in the Caribbean in the late 1700s. A light hearted adventure involving prison breaks, an oddball scientist, sailing ships, naval fights and tons of swordplay.
