Captain Scarlett (1953)

Fooling the guards A terribly weak swashbuckling film; Captain Scarlett (Richard Greene) returns to post-Napoleonic France to discover that his lands have been seized by an unscrupulous nobleman. With his friend Pierre (Nedrick Young) who has also lost his lands, he must by-pass the nobleman's soldiers. The only way is to steal a peasant's horse and cart and pose as two old women on their way home from the market. I would have thought the silly falsetto voice would have been an immediate giveaway.

Richard Greene later became famous to UK children as Robin Hood in a much more professional and successful television series.
