This film is one of Danny Kaye's finest moments in what was a delightful lifetime of films. It showcases the brilliant wordplay and slapstick that Mr. Kaye had perfected to a science. The film is colorful and the performances are outstanding considering the genre. It is one of the few films that can make people of all generations laugh through its ageless "Robin Hood" adventure story.
Also take note of the beautiful Angela Landsbury (in one of her earliest roles) and Glynnis Johns who add the sparkle to this enjoyable film. Basil Rathbone handles the job of bad guy perfectly and Cecil Parker is excellent in the role of the evil king who is not really so bad.
One of Danny Kaye's best films and a must see for anyone interested in this wonderful actor's career.
