Adventures of Captain Fabian Reviews

Sea captain Flynn falls for Presle, an ambitious servant girl, in early New Orleans. She uses him as an entree into rich households and manages to meet Price, a spineless dandy who marries her. Goaded by Presle, Price kills his uncle for riches, a murder with which Flynn is charged. He escapes imprisonment, making it back to his ship with Presle at his side. As mobs close in on the hero and his crew at dockside, a cache of ammunition explodes and kills the vixen Presle, whose dead body is carried away by Flynn amidst debris and flames. One of Flynn's poorer efforts and done near the end of his career, this was also the second collaborative production between William Marshall and Flynn, another financial disaster for the great swashbuckler.
