There are two reasons it's very reminiscent of Mask of Zorro, and that's Terry Rossio & Ted Elliott, screenwriters of both.
Yeah, I was really pleased to see that. They have a definite knack for this sort of thing. I don't suppose you've heard any rumors about what they'll be doing next? I certainly wouldn't mind if they'd toss out another swashbuckler every couple of years, that's for sure.
I knew ahead of time that the score wasn't out yet, thanks to various movie music sites I haunt, and I still zipped right over to Borders after the movie to check. You know, just in case they'd gotten an early copy or two. Darn Disney. I want that CD now!
And Anne Bonney too? And Mary Read?
But of course! Haven't heard of the book, though. Good, I take it? I'm always looking for new pirate-type books.
Ah, Maureen O'Hara. I always liked her. It's the red hair, doncha know. Just like me (okay, way prettier and more fierce than me, but still, a redhead!). It's a pity she tended to be paired with Tyrone Power, though, because I've never warmed up to him. Oh well.
