About

You can watch The Crimson Pirate (1952) for free on Hoopla.

Burt Lancaster plays a pirate with a taste for intrigue and acrobatics who involves himself in the goings on of a revolution in the Caribbean in the late 1700s. A light hearted adventure involving prison breaks, an oddball scientist, sailing ships, naval fights and tons of swordplay.

Sweeping Caribbean vistas set the stage for a whirlwind of acrobatic swordplay and daring prison escapes. This swashbuckling romp trades heavy drama for infectious energy and constant, rhythmic action.
