Mitchell Leisen's anti-swashbuckler takes the genre's familiar tropes and flip them, so that the main point of interest is Joan Fontaine's elegant royal deciding to pose as a male pirate.
An elaborately coiffed Joan Fontaine stars as spirited Lady Dona. She retreats from the decadence of life in London to Navron, her country home in Cornwall. She discovers that her crafty caretaker, played by Cecil Kellaway, is covering for a local pirate, who has been staying at Navron in Dona's absence.
