Movie Clip

Three Musketeers, The (1921) -- (Movie Clip) Behind The Luxembourg The obligatory and comical if deadly inaugural bonding event, as ruffian D’Artagnan (producer Douglas Fairbanks, in his first film in his newly-formed United Artists venture) engages in duels with the three established musketeers (Leon Barry, George Siegmann and Eugene Pallette as Athos, Porthos and Aramis), soon devolving into a larger scrap with Cardinal Richelieu’s guards, in The Three Musketeers, 1921.
Thief of Bagdad, The (1924) -- (Movie Clip) Happiness Must Be Earned Aphorisms at the opening, then the first scenes in Bagdad where the jaunty title character (star and de facto producer Douglas Fairbanks) is up to his daily hijinks, in The Thief Of Bagdad, 1924, directed by Raoul Walsh.
Thief of Bagdad, The (1924) -- (Movie Clip) Thief To Be Flogged Undeterred at seeing a compatriot punished, Douglas Fairbanks (title character) conducts business, escapes with his magic rope, and joins "His Evil Associate" (Snitz Edwards), in The Thief Of Bagdad, 1924.
Good Bad Man, The (1916) -- (Movie Clip) Passin' Through The opening in which the author and star, Douglas Fairbanks, appears only in disguise, common folk marveling at his virtues and his clever nom de guerre, from The Good Bad Man, 1916, one of Fairbanks earliest feature hits.
Good Bad Man, The (1916) -- (Movie Clip) I'm Here To Stay! The just-introduced villain “The Wolf” (Sam De Grasse) arrives to court reluctant Amy (Bessie Love) while the new semi-bandit boarder “Passin’ Through” (Douglas Fairbanks, also author and producer) makes friends with her father, before their first clash, in The Good Bad Man, 1916.
Half-Breed, The (1916) -- (Movie Clip) L'Eau Dormante Confirmed in the prologue as the orphan of a despicable northern Californian and a scorned Indian mother, producer and star Douglas Fairbanks appears in a loincloth in the title role, and learns of the cruel ways of the white man, in The Half-Breed, 1916, from a Bret Harte story.
Half-Breed, The (1916) -- (Movie Clip) My Father Was A White Man! Welcomed at first into a California town, “Lo Dorman” (Douglas Fairbanks), as he’s known to Indian brethren, is separated from Nellie (Jewel Carmen) by her pastor father (Frank Brownlee) then encounters the crooked sheriff (Sam De Grasse), neither knowing of their kinship, in The Half-Breed, 1916.
Black Pirate, The (1926) -- (Movie Clip) Even On This Dark Soil Writer, producer and star Douglas Fairbanks doesn’t appear in the opening, as we join the prologue, pirates looting a taken ship, with general and specific callous acts of murder, Anders Randolf their captain, in the third feature made with two-strip Technicolor, from United Artists, The Black Pirate, 1926.
Black Pirate, The (1926) -- (Movie Clip) I Would Join Your Company! The pirates (Anders Randolf the leader, Donald Crisp their second) who took the ship on which he traveled have appeared on the island where survivor Douglas Fairbanks (the co-writer, producer and star) has just buried, and sworn to avenge, his father, launching his infiltration scheme, in The Black Pirate, 1926.
Black Pirate, The (1926) -- (Movie Clip) Single-Handed Undertaking a test he proposed, in order to gain membership to the pirate band that murdered his father, Douglas Fairbanks (title character) begins the work of taking the “next ship you pick” single-handed, with some famous stunts, in The Black Pirate, 1926.
Mark of Zorro, The (1920) -- (Movie Clip) Don Diego We all know who he really is, but Don Diego (Douglas Fairbanks) is quite sure the drunken Sergeant Pedro (Noah Beery) remains in the dark, in The Mark of Zorro, 1920.
Mark of Zorro, The (1920) -- (Movie Clip) Lolita Much personality is revealed in the swordfight as Zorro (Douglas Fairbanks) drops in on Captain Ramon (Robert McKim) who's been mistreating Lolita (Marguerite De La Motte) in The Mark of Zorro, 1920.
