The Mark of Zorro
In 1820 Spain, the son of a California nobleman comes home to find his native land under a villainous dictatorship. On one hand, he plays the useless fop, while on the other, he is the masked avenger Zorro.
Critics Sentiment
Power and Rathbone engage in cinema's greatest sword fight
Quintero and Pasquale scheme while Diego maintains his facade
The film builds from conventional political scheming to the legendary climactic sword fight between Power and Rathbone
The Mark of Zorro delivers steady entertainment that peaks with one of cinema's greatest sword fights. While some middle sections are considered talky by modern standards, Power's dual performance and the spectacular action sequences create a thoroughly satisfying swashbuckling adventure.
