365+ movies in 365 days: Day 13 - The Adventures Of Robin Hood

In anticipation of tomorrow's release of Robin Hood, tonight I screened the classic film from 1938 The Adventures Of Robin Hood. There is not much to be said about this film that has not been said before. It defined the character of Robin Hood to this day and Errol Flynn will always be identified with the part. It's the first film Warner Bros. made in technicolor and watching the DVD upscaled on the Blu-Ray player, the colors were never more vivid. I probably first saw this film when I was 6 or 7 and I still get a kick out of it when ever I watch it.

At The Movie House rating **** stars

Bidwell Park in Chico, California served as "Sherwood Forest" in the film.
