Captain William Kidd (Charles Laughton) is a clever and ruthless pirate when, in 1699, he tricks King William III (Henry Daniel) into commissioning him to escort a treasure ship returning to England from India. He enlists a crew of cutthroats… and Orange Povey (John Carradine), whom Kidd once abandoned on a reef and hoped never to see again. Hired to fend off enemy vessels, Captain Kidd intends to steal the ship's cargo for himself with the aid of his swarthy lieutenants William Moore (Gilbert Roland) and Povey. But there's more to Gunner Adam Mercy (Randolph Scott) than meets the eye. The romantic subplot is carried by 'honest' brigand Mercy and kidnapped noblewoman Lady Ann Falconer (Barbara Britton). Look out for London's Tower Bridge, it wasn't built until 1894, though it's shown here as existing long before, in Captain Kidd's lifetime.
