Event Details
Audrey Hepburn made a welcome return to the big screen after a nine-year absence in a touching performance as Maid Marian in this romantic swashbuckler with Sean Connery (at his most vulnerable) as Robin Hood.
Richard Lester (The Three Musketeers, 1973) directed the tragicomic original screenplay by Oscar winner James Goldman (The Lion in Winter, 1968), and the supporting cast features an astonishing assemblage of British acting talent including Richard Harris, Denholm Elliott, Nicol Williamson, Ian Holm, and Robert Shaw in a quietly powerful performance as Robin’s perennial nemesis, the Sheriff of Nottingham.
