"This is a colour copy of the film that pioneered two-strip Technicolor. Although the process had not been fully perfected Fairbanks hoped that in using colour he would capture something of the spirit of piracy found in the books of R.L. Stevenson and the paintings of Howard Pyle. From a range of possibilities Fairbanks chose sepia and the darkened tones found in old oil paintings. Technical problems meant that plans for location shooting had to be abandoned and almost the entire film was shot in the studio with few close-ups. Compositions - the grouping of bodies in the frame and the use of light and shadow - appear to have been influenced by the old masters."@en
