If you truly love Zorro, the Gay Blade, you MUST view The Scarlet Pimpernel if you get a chance. I saw it on TCM for the first time yesterday and, sink me!, George Hamilton totally channeled Leslie Howard for his role as Bunny Wigglesworth. He captured all of Leslie Howard's nuances and got it just right. It was a hoot to watch on SO many levels. Watch and enjoy!

I prefer Daffy Duck's rendition; "The Scarlet Pumpernickel"

Love that cartoon!

Oh, yeah; this movie is pretty good, to (though it was funnier on paper).
