Mask ofia Clown. Heart ofia Patriot.
Let danger befall him. Let winds of fate blow where they may. Andre Moreau will strike a blow for vengeance and the French Revolution. First, he must hone his skill with the blade. By the day Andre secretly perfects his parries and lunges.. and hides his true identity at night behind the mask of stage clown Scaramouche.
A climactic duel that's one of the greatest sequences ever to lay steel to foe caps this bravura adaptation of the Rafael Sabatini ( Captain Blood, The Sea Hawk)novel. George Sidney (1948's The Three Musketeers) nimbly directs all the swordplay, wordplay and horseplay. And Stewart Granger brings dash and deviltry to his portrayal of a hero "born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad." En garde!

Swashbukler at its best! - 4 out of 5 (7/11/2003)
Definitely one of the best swashbuckler in film histroy and my personal favorite. The story is exciting with well-conceived plot twist, enhanced by director George Sidney's unique framing and Victor Young's powerful score.
Stewart Granger is outstanding in his prime, playing a Don-Juan-like hero who has an unrevealed past. Eleanor Parker in a rare comic role is also very successful. She and Granger fooling around on the stage would get some big laughs from the viewer, plus a funny ending of h
