  • "Wielding his razor-sharp rapier against the forces of greed and corruption, the mighty Zorro carves his name in the annals of American legend just as Douglas Fairbanks established his reputation as cinema's premier swashbuckler in The Mark Of Zorro. In this, his first full-blown effort at the costume thriller, Fairbanks portrays Don Diego Vega, a comically effete young nobleman with a taste for tasseled sombreros and juvenile silk-hanky magic tricks. But when danger calls, Diego swathes himself in black, straps on a well-honed sword and storms the countryside as the mysterious Zorro, slicing his initial into the faces of the "sentinels of oppression," pausing only to boldly romance the woman (Marguerite De La Motte) to whom his shy alter-ego can hardly summon the courage to speak. Fairbanks brought to the role of Diego/Zorro the same graceful agility and wholesome charm that made him Hollywood's most adulated movie idol, translating these qualities into sequences that roar like a duststorm across the screen -- especially the climax, where Zorro leads Governor Alvardo's (George Periolat) men on a cyclonic chase across the rooftops, haystacks, prison, homes and church of a picturesque Old California village."@en

  • "Douglas Fairbanks came from Broadway to the movies in 1915 when high salaries were luring well-known stage actors to the new feature-length pictures. Although most of these performers failed to 'register' on camera and returned to New York, Fairbanks quickly became a supernova. His energetic, optimistic character, his ingratiating smile, his graceful, acrobatic stunts (he did his own), clever writing, and accomplished staging rapidly made Fairbanks one of the most admired stars in the world. He produced 4 films for United Artists, including The Mark of Zorro (1920), directed by Fred Niblo and starring Fairbanks, Marguerite De La Motte, Robert McKim, and Noah Beery. Set in Spanish California, Zorro (Fairbanks) battles the colonial government while also pursuing the beautiful Lolita."
