The Black Rose
An adventure that will blaze... A love that will flame... 'till the stars grow cold...
Directed by Henry Hathaway
Produced by 20th Century Fox
A sweeping medieval adventure across continents, balancing roguish charm and romantic intrigue with the spectacle of exotic courts and military campaigns.
In the 13th century, Walter of Gurnie, a disinherited Saxon youth, is forced to flee England. With his friend, Tristram, he falls in with the army of the fierce but avuncular General Bayan, and journeys all the way to China, where both men become involved in intrigues in the court of Kublai Khan.
