Event Details
This very funny musical spoof of Medieval swashbucklers was the most lavish and expensive comedy produced up to that time. Danny Kaye plays a carnival entertainer who falls in with a gang of rebels dedicated to protecting the infant King of England while also trying to overthrow the evil pretender to the throne. Basil Rathbone, Glynis Johns, Angela Lansbury, Charles Middleton, and John Carradine co-star. "One of the best comedies ever made." -Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide. DCP. 101 min.
