Feudal realist version where Maid Marian and the Sheriff of Nottingham would be a better love match honestly, it’s just a feudal inheritance thing
Ohhhh, I just got that about Robin Hood, a shady no-one who won an archery tournament in disguise was implicitly a poacher
When Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves was in production they had to change the name of the Morgan Freeman character. The writer had written it on the assumption that the Robin Hood legend had always included a Moorish warrior among the Merrie Men but it turns out that came from a 1980s BBC series and wasn’t in the public domain.does no one realize that robin hood was a terrible role model for young kids? i mean you are stealing from people (illegal) and those people (usually) worked hard to get their wealth. it really demotivates people to succeed when they know they can get something someone else worked for.
is this what rich people worry about lmao
who knew the sheriff of nottingham had a blog
My impression is that children are not even exposed very much to the theft? I mostly remember the stories of various exploits.
After the HUAC Hollywood hearings, the Communist Party sent Hannah Weinstein, one of their members, to London, and gave her money to set up a production company to create a TV show in Britain for blacklisted Communists to write for, and sell it in America to get their work back on the screen.
The show was The Adventures of Robin Hood.
And now he’s part of the canon. Which is exactly how myths work.
