Yes, maybe so. I never seem to see these nominations before they become a poll. Or if they just seem to be an ordinary discussion, I don't recognize that they are meant to be taken seriously as a TMP Poll subject. Always late to the dance, sigh. WWBBD? I recommend interested TMPers seek out Anne of the Indies aka The Pirate Queen (the German language equivalent), stars Jean Peters who just commands the role; directed by Jacques Tourneur and also featuring Debra Paget and Louis Jourdan. link Wikipedia Color film that used to play on AMC cable TV back in the day. Still available on DVD, mainly from Europe so you might need a region-free DVD player. Full of fire and fury and pirate sass. This Wiki entry is woefully inadequate and misjudged, sez I. Jean is terrific in the role and she's got a Scottish first mate! Best female pirate queen EVER! If only she doesn't go stupid over a Frenchman, things would have been great. Blackbeard taught her well but not well enough. |
