| This 1942 classic is one of my favorites. Maureen O'Hara gets it THRICE! See the DataBase. She must have loved being the helpless heroine as she did it so well and so many times. When she's bound & gagged in the carriage scene, her silent eyes say it all! Sorry, best image I could dig up on short. Synchronize your watches! |

Record number: 617 Title: The Black Swan (1942) Medium: Movie Actress: Maureen O'Hara, Unknown Description: Two young women in nightgowns are seized during a pirate raid on their town at the beginning of this film. They are carried bound across the pirates' shoulders. At the shore they are deposited on the beach where they are laid on their backs among the loot. They struggle and one refuses to drink wine. They are rescued. Later, Maureen O'Hara is abducted by a pirate suitor. She is forced into a carriage while gagged with her own shawl. From the position of her arms it seems they are bound and her legs probably are too. In the final sequence, after she is forced to masquerade as her abductor's wife, another pirate seizes her as a hostage. Since she is seized from bed, she is wearing a nightgown. She is tied in a cabin with her hands behind her, her bindings also being fastened to some piece of furniture. She struggles mightily. |
