1. The Buccaneer | Rotten Tomatoes
Audience Reviews · I enjoyed the movie as a youngster. · Seen many times, but it never gets old. · Obessed with Yul Brynner since 1990. · A rollicking take on 1812.
During the War of 1812, New Orleans is the target of a major British offensive. General Andrew Jackson (Charlton Heston) feels they should ask for help from Jean Lafitte (Yul Brynner), a pirate who occupies a strategic island near New Orleans. The Louisiana governor, William Claiborne (E.G. Marshall), agrees, despite his distaste for Lafitte. Those close to Lafitte feel he should side with the British, but Lafitte becomes love-struck by Clairborne's daughter, Annette (Inger Stevens).

4. The Buccaneer - Variety
It's the War of 1812 against Britain and the battle area in New Orleans. The action takes place on land except for the sinking of one ship.
Romance is effectively brought in the Cecil B. DeMille-supervised production that focuses on the colorful historical character of Jean Lafitte. On the deficit side is a wordy script that lacks any large degree of excitement. It marks the debut for Anthony Quinn as director.
