If you loved Yankee Doodle Dandy, try The Sea Hawk
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Michael Curtiz. If that's the register that drew you to Yankee Doodle Dandy, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Sea Hawk is
Here's a film unafraid to be swashbuckling. Englishman Geoffrey Thorpe enjoys raiding Spanish galleons, until he falls for one of his prizes, the lovely Dona Maria. It's probably best not to dwell on the geopolitics too much.
