Let’s go on a field trip!

The Fox Theatre in The Beaches, Toronto, is playing The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938), with Errol Flynn as Robin Hood, and Basil Rathbone as the Sir Guy of Gisbourne.

Let’s meet there and enjoy a classic swashbucking film together!

Fighty facts about the film:

• This is the second time that the iconic pair of Errol Flynn and Basil Rathbone dueled on film. The first was Captain Blood (1935)

• Basil Rathbone was one of the great movie sword-fighters of his time. He was a two-time British Army Fencing Champion, which is quite evident in another film, The Mark of Zorro (1940).

• Legendary archer Howard Hill did the trick shooting for the film, as well as played the role of “Elwyn the Welshman” in the archery contest.
