You really can’t lose with the Metro Classics series. Tonight: The 1938 Robin Hood with Errol Flynn and Olivia De Havilland.
If you haven’t seen this early Technicolor picture, you may recognize chunks of it from Mel Brooks’s Robin Hood: Men in Tights, which borrows from this and the Kevin Costner version in equal measure.

Errol Flynn as Robin Hood
Swoon!

Fabulous trivia that I learned from IMDB a while ago: In this version of Robin Hood, Olivia de Havilland’s horse later had his name changed from Golden Cloud to Trigger. Yes, that Trigger!

Ugh, I need an editor. That sentence is CRAP.
This is such a good movie, if you haven’t you should see it!
There so few good renditions of the Robin Hood story…I’m hoping to see another one with the new one coming out with Russell Crowe
