What they share

Both films are directed by Michael Curtiz, and they both carry the neon soaked, playful mood tags, and they sit in Adventure / History / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Adventures of Robin Hood, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Captain Blood is

A gentleman-turned-pirate sounds like a bad day by anyone’s ledger. A disgraced surgeon sold into servitude buys a ship instead. One wonders if the Royal Navy ever issued refunds for its legal fees.
