Sorry, this movie sucks

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

QUEEN OF THE HIGH SEAS is a somewhat routine Italian swashbuckler that's notable for being just the second film to be directed by cult Italian director Umberto Lenzi. It's standard stuff for the era, a fast-paced and colourful story about a female pirate doing her bit in a supposed Britain, although I admit to preferring the sword and sandal movies from this era as they always had a bit more personality and larger-than-life appeal to them.This film is quite ordinary in terms of plotting. It stars Lisa Gastoni as the athletic Mary Read, a woman who spends the early part of the movie disguised as a man before joining the crew of a pirate ship led by the ridiculously-named Captain Poof! Gastoni's performance seems to be based on Doris Day's turn in CALAMITY JANE. After a time, Poof is killed (thankfully) and Mary Read adopts the title role. The film itself is quite low rent, good at staging but less adept at the action scenes, although we must remember than Lenzi was just starting out at this stage of his career.

I only recently became aware of this early Lenzi swashbuckler, but I had read generally favourable assessments of it; having now watched it myself, I quite agree that the film is an above-average peplum – with star Lisa Gastoni in fine form (though most other credits are unfamiliar, including American leading man Jerome Courtland!). Acquired via a late-night Italian TV screening, the print was apparently a hybrid – as the main titles were severely panned-and-scanned, while the rest was in the proper aspect ratio…albeit of hardly optimal quality!The plot (while supposedly set in England and the Americas, the road signs are conspicuously displayed in Italian!) deals with lady criminal Mary Read – who is already notorious when we first meet her, even if operating on a small-scale level. She ends up in prison after committing a theft while donning male attire; her philandering cellmate happens to be the son of a lord (Courtland), and it does not take him long to realize her true gender – of course, the heroine freshening up while he is ostensibly asleep does not help her conceal the fact! However, their relationship runs hot and cold: after the nobleman is released and she escapes (by chaining the door to the window bars which, when the former is forced open by prison attendants the latter get unhinged!), he makes fun of her to his peers. She swears to get even and, to this end, falls in with a pirate leader bearing the unfortunate name of Captain Poof! When he is killed in a raid, she even assumes his identity; her buccaneering exploits become the stuff of legend: at one point, we are told that she has taken up residence in the colonies with the likes of Blackbeard and Sir Henry Morgan (but these historical figures never actually come into play)! The male protagonist, on the other hand, is scolded by his dad and offered three courses of action to follow: marry a rich ugly woman (which, when he refuses, presumably becomes his mother-in-law since she is subsequently father's constant companion!), take monastic vows or opt for a military career. He chooses the minor evil amongst them and settles on the latter: given his clout at court, he is almost instantly entrusted with the biggest ship in the British fleet...yet he proceeds to scuttle the Governor's vessel, after being deliberately misled by Poof! However, he determines to make up for his error by offering to catch the feared pirate single-handed: when he finally boards the ship and finds Mary in the captain's cabin, he berates her for having become his lover – only to be told that she herself is Poof. Still, they predictably patch up their differences and, when the Governor comes to assist Courtland and wrecks the buccaneer's vessel, the hero passes Read off as a captive; back at court, dad is happy his offspring is, at long last, ready to settle down. All in all, this proves a lively and colourful entertainment, though perhaps too low-key to stick in the memory for too long...

All that I really want to say that this movie was far better than I would have expected. Still, I need a minimum of ten lines to be able to post here. So, let me further recommend it to anyone who enjoys pirate movies. Try to track it down. The copy that I watched was not the cleanest, and it was filled with many scratches, broken-film like splices, and so on. However, that did not distract too much from my overall enjoyment. What made this one stand out for me was that it had a better story than most. Though it had many of the same elements that you will find in other female pirate movies, it felt more realistic to me. Mary is smart and believable. I could see a crew following her lead.This one seems ripe for a modern remake.

This is the story of a female corsair, Mary Read, who takes over a ship of pirates and wreaks havoc on the high seas. Later, she squares off against an old nemesis. This is a very colorful, adventurous film, which looks as if it were inspired by the films of Raoul Walsh (in fact, the director, Umberto Lenzi, is known to be a big Raoul Walsh fan). It's too bad that they don't make films like this anymore.
