Plot

Children are captured by pirates.

Sinekatalog’s take

Alexander Mackendrick's adventure has English children captured by pirates and slowly corrupting their captors. Anthony Quinn and James Coburn star in a sharp, offbeat tale that is darker and wilder than a standard sea romp.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
