Frenchman’s Creek

Los Angeles Restoration Premiere

Joan Fontaine stuns as the noblewoman Dona St. Columb who leaves her husband and children for a charming French pirate (Mexican star Arturo de Córdova) and his band of misfits. But their plundering adventures along the coast of Cornwall are challenged by the meddling of Lord Rockingham (Basil Rathbone). Mitchell Leisen helms this adaptation of a novel by Daphne du Maurier (Rebecca) rendered in glorious three-strip Technicolor by George Barnes (The War of the Worlds).
