This revisionist retelling of the classic tale features a less-than-altruistic Robin Hood (Patrick Bergin) and a fiesty Maid Marion (Uma Thurman) who isn't afraid of a little swordplay. It has Robin Hood starting out as a landowner who loses his holdings through the machinations of tax-collecting turncoat Deguerre. In response, the Saxon hero takes up with a band of robbers, organizing them in a effort to remove Deguerre and the other villainous Normans from power.
