Product Description
Music Composed and Conducted by Franz Waxman

Also includes: MAN ON A TIGHTROPE

This is a historic Franz Waxman release. Cut from the same epic cloth of his later score for Prince Valiant, Anne of the Indies shows Franz Waxman in full pirate regalia. His score is a sprawling swashbuckler of a romp that simply explodes with orchestral color and excitement. This is the way pirate movies used to sound … and its BIG!!

After seizing a British ship, the female pirate captain Anne Providence (Jean Peters) spares a Frenchman captured by the British, Pierre LaRochelle (Louis Jourdan), from walking the plank. He agrees to join Providence’s crew and soon she begins to fall for the handsome officer.

They travel to an island where they meet with her piratical mentor Captain Blackbeard (played by Thomas Gomez), who takes an instant dislike to LaRochelle, although he at first holds back as he can see Anne has affection for him. After lavish celebrations and much drinking is done, things take a darker turn…

A truly special release from the 20th Century Fox archives.
