Pirates of the Coast - A great, colorful Italian costume epic with Barker as a ship captain who is pitted against a crafty pirates. There are some interesting turnabouts, however, with plot twists a-plenty. Pirates of the Coast (1960) Director: Domenico Paolella Writers: Ernesto Gastaldi (uncredited), Ugo Guerra, Luciano Martino Stars: Lex Barker, Estella Blain, Livio Lorenzon Genre: Adventure Country: Italy, France Language: English Also Known As: Pirates of the Barbary Coast Release Date: 1 December 1960 (Italy) Reviews: “In this exciting, colorful Italian 1960 swashbuckling costume drama, Lex Barker plays Commander Luis Monterrey, a man who is seemingly successful and powerful (although an interesting early scene makes clear that although Monterrey is allowed to attend important social functions and mingle with the rich, he is NOT one of them, and is expected to “know his place“ in society), representing Spain as a naval officer in the mid-1500s. You might be expecting a usual captain hero vs. bad pirates plot based on the first twenty minutes, but the film makes an interesting about-face, and then goes in a very different direction, which I won't give away. Barker handles the role convincingly, and is paired against, then with, pirate head Livio Lorenzon. One of Lorenzon's associates is played by Black American expatriate actor John Kitzmiller. The film could use some more swordplay, but overall, it's an exciting, well-played and well-photographed genre-film, for those who like Italian costume adventures. And the charismatic Lex Barker once again shows why he became such a popular actor in Europe in the late 50s and early 60s. This film was once a staple on US local TV twenty years ago.“ - written by ““ on Also Known As (AKA): (original title) I pirati della costa Brazil Os Piratas da Costa Bulgaria (Bulgarian title) Пирати от крайбрежието East Germany (TV title) Piraten der Küste France Les pirates de la côte Greece (transliterated title) Peiratiki antarsia Italy I pirati della costa Portugal O Aventureiro dos Mares Spain (TV title) El pirata de la costa Turkey (Turkish title) Korsanlar Adasi USA Pirates of the Coast West Germany Die Küste der Piraten Pirates of the Barbary Coast ···················································································· ✘ Website: FOLLOW US! ✘ Twitter - SUPPORT US! ✘ Membership: MORE MOVIES! ► Film Noir: ► Classic Movies: ► All Playlists: #classicmovies #filmnoir #colorizedmovies ···················································································· COPYRIGHT: All of the films published by us are legally licensed.
