Very much a vehicle for Yvonne de Carlo, this - and though not terrible, it is still a fairly unremarkable seafaring adventure with far too much singing... Philip Friend is a man with a double life - a sort of maritime "Zorro" who leads a respectable enough life by day but is arch pirate "Baptiste" by night. De Carlo is "Deborah" a Louisiana crooner who falls for him and, despite his existing liaison with "Arlene Villon" (Andrea King) sets out to get her man. There are a couple of fun interventions from Elsa Lanchester and Henry Daniell, but the film really belongs to the ever evil Robert Douglas as ruthless rival "Narbonne" who learns of our secret and sets out to ruin "Baptiste". It's got plenty of cannon-fire, pirate attacks and duels - but is still a poor relation of many of these feisty gal meets sea rogue stories. If you like the genre - and I do - then it passes 80 minutes in colourful, if unoriginal, style.
