Editorial Reviews

Though the story told in Robin and Marian is unfamiliar to most audiences, it is actually quite faithful to several of the ancient Robin Hood legends. During the Crusades, Robin (Sean Connery) is still loyal to King Richard the Lionheart (Richard Harris), but even he has trouble adjusting to the monarch's ever-increasing paranoia and lunacy. After Richard's death, Robin returns to England, his first visit to his home turf in 20 years. He looks up his beloved Maid Marian (Audrey Hepburn, last seen in 1967's Wait Until Dark), who is now a middle-aged nun. No sooner do Robin and Marian renew their relationship than the aging Merry Men demand Robin's services in thwarting their old foe, the Sheriff of Nottingham (Robert Shaw). Marian is aghast that the long-standing feud between Robin and the sheriff threatens to expand into wholesale bloodshed. The two venerable enemies agree to one last mano a mano battle -- only to watch helplessly as the all-out war they'd tried to avoid commences anyway. Both the tragic climax and Robin's last, defiant arrow shot are drawn directly from authentic Robin Hood ballads of the 14th and 15th centuries. Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

August 08, 2005: This film includes two long-time favorites, Sean Connery and Audrey Hepburn as Robin and Marian. A beautiful love story, albeit sad, it adheres to the legends written of Robin Hood. Definitely recommend a box of tissues when viewing this great movie.

May 18, 2004: This enjoyable film focuses on the later years of the legendary Robin Hood (Sean) and his lost love, Maid Marian(Audrey). Both are excellent in their roles as star-crossed lovers reunited with a substantial twist at the end. Director Richard Lester provides a dirty, realistic, if sometimes comical vision of the 12th Century. It is this humor that provides some of the realistic quality to this magical film. Battle scenes are brutal and bloody as would have been the case when two men are trying to butcher each other with swords, but there is no gratuitous bloodshed or extremely graphic violence. The interplay beween Little John (Nicol Williamson) and Robin and Marian is excellent. Robert Shaw plays a great Sheriff of Nottingham whose relationship with Robin is nothing like the Errol Flynn/Basil Rathbone original, adding an extra dimension to the film. I truly enjoyed this movie from an action standpoint as well as costuming and weapons. The score is both beautiful and compelling. Despite a few shortcomings it is a wonderful love story with excellent sword fighting. What more could enyone want?
