The Ultimate 70's Pirate Classic I Swashbuckler (1976) I Retrospective

One of the pirates here is called Polanski and is of Polish origin. Interesting because a few years later Roman Polański will direct a movie about pirates. Maybe that's what inspired him?

The inspiration for Jack Sparrow and Pirates of the Caribbean! A loveable scoundrel and Robin Hood of the seas. What a grande movie. Thank you 👏

James earl jones was so handsome when he was younger

Why wasn't this movie at least a 3 hour long epic? They had plenty of material written, all of the scenes were great, and we should have seen more of all the actors and actresses.

😅he was also a pilot in a spitfires the film battle of Britain, with ian mcshane

I enjoyed the movie -- and the politically incorrect exchange of insults before the final battle: "Degenerate!" - "Slut!" -- "Murderer!" - "Filth!" - "Pederast!" You won't hear anything like that in Pirates of the Caribbean. Thank God for the Seventies! And for Robert Shaw and Genevieve Bujold who were very big back then, and rightfully so. Happy New Year everyone!

I don’t understand Angelica Huston roll it does not make sense why is she there

Well, buckle my swash.........

Grew up watching this in the 80s. One of my favourites. Jane Durant sword fighting was " girl power" long before the Spice Girls came along.

Blue sky like magical magnificent amazing world

Did everyone see the perfect blue sky no chemtrails

Jan 6 people, 10%=for big guy 200billion to foreign nation no accountability . 3trillion missing from Pentagon we have computers don't get it don't understand should be a missing cent

I graduated high school that year. The Golden Hinde replica,used in the movie, came to Sf bay. It was a lot smaller than you'd expect. Loved the movie then and now.

On UK TV this was known as "The Scarlet Buccaneer".

I watched this 200 times as a kid, totally not a kid movie but I just love the swordfighting

Tried to figure out the 'Freddie Kruger kid meets Beau Bridges' memory. Thankyou for making this available

I enjoying the film twice, there's humour in it just like jaws ,cant understand them that Mourne about it, you really dont have to watch if you dont like

Cool!

Think I saw him on Dr. Who.

Beau Bridges best role😊

A really great movie with a few famous faces in this epic swashbuckling movie and an added bonus not a single advert!!

Capt Quint and Lord Darth Vader hand in hand

Dang, you forgot to mention Angelica Houston was in this. She's one of my favorites.

I watched this movie as a kid when I was on vacation in Winnipeg it was a great movie.

"stole what belonged to the locals?" ...Caribbean natives are what race? There was no locals population. They were imported slaves from Africa. Bought from Muslim slave traders in the Western Sahara and West Africa.

I realize that you put the title of the movies on the thumbnail photos instead of in the title description so that they don't get deleted because of copyright but the problem is that nobody can find the movies by name unless they stumble upon it hence far fewer views, likes and subscriptions but it's your channel so sally forth.

Muy buena la trama de la película saludos de la ciudad de México 🇲🇽

Great Robert Shaw, my favourit. Great film. No Islamist terrorists, no aliens, no bad language, no naked women. Wonderful film!

Robert Shaw passed away too young. He could have made another dozen of excellent films for cinema goers. RIP

Robert Shaw played a splendid Henry VIII in “A Man For All Seasons”. Wonderful film.

It's so typical for the 1970s to mix different genres (Blaxploitation, Adventure, Horror and Comedy) to reanimate the pirate-film. Very similar like "Il corsaro nero" with Mel Ferrer as the vilain-governour.

I was 10 years old when I saw this movie. My brother, my mother and I went. I fell in love with Robert Shaw. I was teased and told I fell in love with an old man but I didn't care! We all moved the movie and I saw Robert Shaw again in Jaws. I will always have a soft spot for the actor. Thanks for posting the movie, I enjoyed watching it again❤❤❤

Wow, she's got a bit of a cast on her, don't she?

I hadn't seen this in many years and I'm an hour into this film and getting pretty bored. It is a pirate movie which takes place entirely on an island (Jamaica) and the heroes run around laughing all the time and the music is all the same over and over again. It is nice seeing the young Robert Shaw (who died at the age of 47 only two years after this movie came out) and the very young James Earl Jones who was pretty lean in those days.

Maybe the Woke culture could learn a lot from this movie shot in 76 incredible wow

Yes

Great ending fight.

classic

Insufferable movie. Now I understand why it bombed at the box office.

James Earl Jones aged quite alot between this movie and Conan the Barbarian only 6 years later...

Loved it! Tks for uploading it!

good to see Avery Schreiber in this, as he was one of my favorites in the 70s.

Government villains who stole the freedom and wealth which rightfully belong to the the people, exactly what their doing today

"Colonial outposts ruled by villainous governors who stole freedom and wealth of ... the people." The basic plot line of Star Wars and history.

That movie was on heavy rotation on German TV in the 80s that's where I saw it first and i still have a soft spot for it...

Not a single eye-patch, peg-leg, hook-hand, wise-cracking parrot or jug of rum in the whole picture? WTF? Not enough raping or sodomy either. And whoever heard of weedless, ganja-free Jamaica? And was this filmed before tattoos were invented? Or facial scars? Angelica Huston looks ghastly. The score sounds composed by a plumber or a welder. Darth Vader's voice gets an A+ for his belt and are these the fattest pirates ever? Pirates of the all-you-can-eat buffet. They should cast prettier women, otherwise no one will care.

....GREETINGS AMIGAS AMIGOS....from ....TÅCØ PIRATÅ......México City....cabrones .
