Best Film | 1954
This was Universal-International's first feature in CinemaScope. Whilst it was released in the widescreen format, it was not filmed in the new anamorphic process, but in standard 1:37 Academy ratio and then matted to 1:2.35 CinemaScope.
Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh were real life husband and wife.
The film is famous for the story of a Tony Curtis line: "Yonda is da castle of my fodda" (or similar), which perhaps sought to ridicule the spate of 1950s Technicolor adventure movies in which US actors with strong American accents played medieval English characters. The story is apocryphal: the line doesn't appear in the film.
Tony Curtis was widely felt to be badly miscast as Myles.
Final film of Claud Allister.
"Myles Falworth: [after holding a stone in his outstretched arm for a long length of time] My arm feels as if it shall fall off. Francis Gascoyne: That's alright, you'll be allowed to use the other."
"Sir James: I don't like your manners. Change them. Nor your truculence. Drop it. Nor your impudence. Mask it. As for your temper, curb it. If I learn of your brawling just once more, I'll fling you from the walls of Mackworth Castle myself."
