In seventeenth century England, an Irish doctor named Peter Blood (Errol Flynn) is summoned to aid Lord Gildoy, a wounded patron who had participated in the Monmouth Rebellion. Arrested while performing his sacred duties as a physician, he is convicted of treason against the King and sentenced to death by the infamous Judge Jeffreys in the Bloody Assizes. By the whim of King James II, who sees an opportunity for profit, Blood and the surviving rebels are transported to the West Indies to be sold into slavery.
IMDB
In the English colony of Port Royal, Blood is purchased by Arabella Bishop (Olivia de Havilland), the beautiful niece of the local military commander Colonel Bishop (Lionel Atwill). Attracted by Blood's rebellious nature, Arabella does her best to improve his chances of living by recommending him as the personal physician of the local governor, who is suffering from a gouty foot. Outwardly resentful towards Arabella for trying to do him favors, yet silently appreciative for her support, Blood nevertheless continues to hatch a plan of escape for himself and his fellow slaves. The plan is almost foiled when Bishop gets suspicious and has one of the men flogged in an attempt to make him talk. Later, Blood is spared a similar fate when a Spanish squadron attacks the town. During the raid, Blood and his fellow slaves escape, seize control of the Spanish raiders' ship, and sail away to begin a life of piracy.
Blood and his men soon achieve incredible success and fame. When the old governor is unable to contain the pirate menace, Colonel Bishop is promoted to his post, and Arabella is sent to England for a recreational sojourn. Sometime later, while sailing back to the Caribbean, the ship on which Arabella and royal emissary Lord Willoughby (Henry Stephenson) are travelling is captured by Blood's treacherous partner, Captain Levasseur (Basil Rathbone), who plans to hold the two for ransom. Blood purchases them himself, relishing the opportunity to turn the tables on his former owner, but Levasseur objects vehemently and is killed in the ensuing duel.
Back on the open seas, Blood offers Arabella valuable jewelry from his conquests as a sign of his love for her. Rather than showing gratitude for being rescued, Arabella is indignant at having been purchased by Blood and calls him a "thief and a pirate". Despite his anger at being rejected, in an act of gallantry he orders his men to set sail to Port Royal to deliver Arabella and Lord Willoughby to safety, despite the presence there of Colonel Bishop and his forces.
As they approach Port Royal, they sight two French warships attacking the undefended colony, after Bishop deserted his post in his single-minded pursuit of Blood. Lord Willoughby pleads with Blood to save the colony, but the captain and his crew refuse to fight for the corrupt king. When Willoughby reveals that James II has since been deposed in the Glorious Revolution and that Willoughby has been sent by the new king, William of Orange, to offer Blood and his men a full pardon and a commission with the Royal Navy, they change their minds and prepare for battle.
After setting Arabella ashore, Blood and his men approach the harbor disguised under French colors, and in the ensuing pitched battle, they defeat the enemy and save the colony. As a reward, Blood is appointed the new governor of Port Royal and has the pleasure of dealing with his hostile predecessor, now in serious trouble for dereliction of duty, and finally winning the hand and heart of Arabella.
Captain Blood is a 1935 American swashbuckling film directed by Michael Curtiz and starring Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland, Basil Rathbone, and Ross Alexander. The film was made by First National Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures and produced by Harry Joe Brown and Gordon Hollingshead, with Hal B. Wallis as executive producer. Based on the 1922 novel Captain Blood by Rafael Sabatini, with a screenplay by Casey Robinson, the film is about an enslaved doctor and his fellow prisoners who escape and become pirates on the open seas.
Warner Bros. Pictures took a serious risk in pairing two relative unknown performers in the lead roles. Flynn's performance made him a major star and established him as the natural successor to Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. and a "symbol of an unvanquished man" during the Depression. The film also established de Havilland, in just her fourth film appearance, as a major star. Captain Blood was the first of eight films co-starring Flynn and de Havilland, and in 1938, the two would be re-united with Rathbone in The Adventures of Robin Hood. The film also features a stirring musical score by Erich Wolfgang Korngold. Some of the impressive sea-battle footage was taken from The Sea Hawk (1924).
