To the public he became a fine-mannered fop, but in the still of the night he was Zorro, the marauding Robin Hood of the New World, threatening the wicked regime of Quintero and undoing the dirt it did. After numerous narrow escapes, he succeeded in his personal crusade, winning at the same time the Alcante's innocent niece. Tyrone Power is the gay young caballero and he gives the part all he has.
