This film is one of my all-time favorites. When my grandparents were dating in the late 1930s- early 1940s, they saw several of Flynn's films in theaters. This is one they spoke most fondly about seeing. As a result, I have seen it many times.
Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland simply have some of the best screen chemistry ever. Robin Hood is definitely the role Errol Flynn was born to play, and here he is at his most handsome, athletic, and charming. Additionally, the supporting cast is just superb. Claude Rains manages to come off as both charming and diabolical at the same time, and Basil Rathbone is also great as Sir Guy. A must-see, especially for members of my family!
