  • Following 1938's "The Adventures of Robin Hood", Hollywood seemed hesitant to be seen to rival the success of the picture, leading to several 'son of Robin Hood' adventures. The second of these types, 1950's "Rogues of Sherwood Forest", almost leans in to Errol Flynn's famous outing, reading almost as a sequel to the classic film. Not only are several costumes reused, notably one of Basil Rathbone's here sported by Lowell Gilmore as the Count of Flanders, but Alan Hale makes his third and final appearance as Little John, after appearing opposite both Flynn and Douglas Fairbanks in 1922.
    "Rogues of Sherwood Forest" sees Robert, Earl of Huntingdon, the son of Robin Hood, standing up to the oppression of Prince John, now King John after Richard's death. Robert and Little John bring the band back together, with Friar Tuck, Alan a'Dale and WIll Scarlett returning to the greenwood. Rescinding all the good deeds done in Richard's reign, John seeks to make his enemies pay with their lives. With the help of the brave and resourceful ward, Marianne, Robert leads the rebellion as the reincarnated Robin Hood. Yet Archbishop Stephen Langton has other ideas than just rebellion, convincing the men of Sherwood Forest that something more tangible, a bill of rights, must bring John into line...
    Starring John Derek as Robin, Alan Hale as Little John, Diana Lynn as Marianne, George Macready as King John, Lowell Gilmore as the Count of Flanders, Billy House as Friar Tuck, Lester Matthews as Alan a'Dale, Billy Bevan as Will Scarlet, and Donald Randolph as Archbishop Stephen Langton.

    What an entertaining, fast moving little B movie. One of Derek's first chances to be lead, I think. Also, Marianne is a surprisingly strong female lead for the time, playing a vital role in Robin's plans throughout.

    Amazing. This Robin Hood film is all fun! And John Derek the lead looks very similar to Errol Flynn’s lead in the other Robin Hood film. And there are some similarities in the Ivanhoe of Robert Taylor too. Lovely films. Lovely era. And watching these makes me remember reading all these stories as a kid.

    The script is surprisingly literate and historically accurate. Mariane is proactive, not just a damsel in distress waiting to be rescued. The acting, direction, production design and cinematography are far above average.

    Diana Lynn was only 24 when she acted in the film.

    Unfortunately Diana Lynn only lived to the age of 45. She suffered a fatal stroke in 1971.

    The Brit's, Scott's & Irish had very turbulent times (I'm sure even back in the 960's, lives & living was brutal, hard & ugly).
    The most nasty that come to mind 4 me (imho) were the years 1066, 1215 to 1800's & then WWI & WWII (I won't mention the 60's --> 90's troubles as they were just as horrific).

    Awesome film, Love it…❤️. My first time watching this, I’m glad I found this channel with old movies….lately that’s all I care to watch. Today’s movies, imho, can’t hold a candle to the older films. I’m tired of lewd language, sexual overtones, politically correct and CGI/AI garbage….all this doesn’t make a movie better, it only degrades it into oblivion. What happened to all those actors who were trying to make the film count for something? They blew away with the techno era of laziness, plus forget about quality, it’s the easier way out instead. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful film, it made my day brighter….👍❤️🙏🏼

      It’s placed on a spiritual and sacred level. It’s the pursuit of justice as opposed to revenge. It’s looking beyond to the future, rather than backwards. It’s thinking how to extend rights, and why. It aspires to better values.

    We don’t look to Hollywood movies for historical accuracy, however to be pedantic, no English monarch was referred to as Your Majesty at this time, he would be referred to as My Lord. Majesty did not come into usage at all until 300 years later in the reign of Henry VIII and even then the Tudor monarchs were mostly referred to directly as Your Grace.
