The Private Life of Don Juan
Swordsman! Robinhood! Rogue!
Directed by Alexander Korda
Produced by London Films Productions, United Artists
A witty, romantic comedy about an aging seducer confronting his past and the consequences of his legendary escapades, blending farce with genuine emotional stakes.
What do women want? Don Juan is aging. He's arrived secretly in Seville after a 20 year absence. His wife Dolores, whom he hasn't lived with in five years, still loves him. He refuses to see her; he fears the life of a husband. She has bought his debts and will remand him to jail for two years if he won't come to her. Meanwhile, an impostor is climbing the balconies of Seville claiming to be Don Juan.
