...story, such as it is, is concerned with Pirate Laurent Van Horn (Paul Henreid), an ex-Dutch sea captain, fat, dastardly Spanish Governor Don Alvarado (Walter Slezak) and aristocratic Francisca (Maureen O'Hara). There is all sorts of high-spirited romancing, pirate treachery, Iberian cruelty and slashing sword play before Van Horn and Francisca finally sail away together into an almost overpoweringly golden sunrise...

He is also a man who did not want...
