Critic Reviews for Captain Lightfoot
All Critics (2) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (1)
Sirk is less interested in swashbuckling than in strategy: he looks at the uprising analytically, noting the bitter ironies of shrewd commanders compelled to restrain audacious warriors for the sake of the long-term struggle.
