Movies Like The Crimson Pirate
1952·105 min·Dir. Robert Siodmak·★ 7.1
AdventureComedy
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.
