About this movie

In The Black Shield of Falworth, Tony Curtis woos his real-life bride Janet Leigh, while defending the British throne in a swashbuckling tale filled with joust, jests and medieval heroics. The time is England in the reign of King Henry IV. Miles (Tony Curtis) is a headstrong, handsome peasant determined to learn the name of his slain father and discover his true heritage. His fiery ambition and swift sword lead him to the majestic MacWorth Castle. There he must vie for both knighthood as well as the hand of the fair Lady Anne (Janet Leigh), but her love is claimed by the evil, conniving Sir Walter Blount. All the while the English throne is being challenged to the death from sinister forces within. With its remarkable supporting cast and stunning set design, this is truly an epic tale of which legends are made!

It is a good watch, doesn't require anything from you, should love period movies, movies where the guy gets the girl in the end and live happily ever after, but not before all seems lost..
