In the course of remodelling (Thanks, Ike!), I found three swashbuckler type movies on VHS I had long since replaced with DVDs.
If anyone wants one, two or all three let me know here. I am not interested in shipping them out, but if I am likely to run into you (perhaps at a tournament) in the Houston-Galveston area, I am sure a pass off can be arranged.
All free, of course.
The films are:
The Three Musketeers (1921) Douglas Fairbanks, silent, B&W
The Black Pirate (1926) 90 minutes, Douglas Fairbanks, silent but in Technicolor!
The Last Musketeer (2000) 99 minutes Robson Green
A note on the Fairbanks silents, the fencing is banal, but he was an amazingly athletic actor.
The Robson Green flick was a made-for-Scottish TV film set in the modern world. He plays a candidate for the British Olympic Fencing Team but gets bounced for being a prima donna, has issues with local thugs, and hides out by taking a job teaching fencing in a private girls school.

Brief addendum, possibly of interest to vraptor, I also am disposing of the VHS version of Revenge of the Musketeers, starring Sophie Marceau.

Revenge of the Musketeers?
Anyway, sorry guy. I converted to all-DVDs years ago (Like most, I presume).
