Robin Hood

Synopsis

Robin Hood is another – already at least the tenth – attempt by filmmakers to tell the story of a noble robber from Sherwood Forest. Viewers will see everything that is associated with the hero of medieval English folk ballads – the return of the titular character from the Crusade, corruption in Nottingham, confrontation with the sheriff and love with the Virgin of Marian. However, technological tricks, allusions to the social life of the protagonist and – as usual now – light references to modernity were added by the producers to refresh the story.
