Forget Russell Crowe and Kevin Costner, this is the definitive Robin Hood.
Adventure, suspense, comedy, this has it all from Friar Tuck and Little John to great swashbuckling action.
Not to be missed.

Key Largo
Bogart and Bacall, 1948, also stars Edward G. Robinson, Lionel Barrymore. Directed by John Huston.
Not as much heat as "To Have and Have Not" but interesting nonetheless.
War vet traveling through Florida stops at hotel owned by the father and sister of a war buddy who never made it back. Complications arise when gangster takes over the off-season hotel just before a hurricane strikes.
Adaptation of the Maxwell Anderson play.
Chemistry between the stars is evident but supporting characters make this one something to watch.
Look for Jay Silverheels ("Tonto") in a bit part.

Experiment in Terror
1962 suspense film stars Glen Ford, Lee Remick, directed by Blake Edwards.
Gritty, tense movie about woman being extorted. FBI man Ford is on the case.
Interesting not just for atmosphere aided by Henry Mancini music but also for the fact that Edwards was mainly known for comedies. Yet he shows an adept hand at directing this chiller.
Worth a look.
