This May, Kyle takes control of all the programming designs on Catching Up On Cinema, for a special event that we're calling, \u201cKyle's Kitchen Sink\u201d!

\n

All month long, Kyle follows his nose, allowing his impulsivity and gut instinct to drive his movie selection process from week to week.

\n

First up this month, Kyle has us review Michael Curtiz', The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)!

\n

A classic Technicolor swashbuckler starring Errol Flynn, The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938) is a joyful and timeless adventure film.

\n

Also starring frequent Errol Flynn co-star, Olivia De Havilland and Basil Rathbone, as well as featuring Claude Rains in fine form as the delightfully villainous Prince John, The Adventures of Robin Hood boasts a handsome cast of massively charismatic players.

\n

Structured in an episodic fashion, and covering most of the more famous story beats and characters in the broader Robin Hood lore, The Adventures of Robin Hood serves as an excellent introduction to the character and his associated tropes.

\n

Filled with vibrant costumes and sets, and a cavalcade of wondrous stunt work, The Adventures of Robin Hood is a charming and energetic film that gleefully and awkwardly chortles in the face of any who would think it \u201ctoo old\u201d to be fun.
