Robbery Under Arms

1920 · 53 min
4.5 / 10 · TMDB

It's a bush-ranging yarn, very popular at the time, about Captain Starlight, played well by Brampton himself, and his co-horts the Marsden family. Dick Marsden is especially well played by Roland Conway, who is the quintessential Aussie bloke.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a brisk adventure narrative, relying on the contrast between the leader's charm and the raw loyalty of the Marsden family. It explores the foundational myths of the frontier, where law is malleable and fortune is seized.

What lingers after viewing is the raw, unpolished energy of early cinema and the archetypes it established for the outlaw genre. A fascinating glimpse into a popular yarn of its day. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Kenneth Brampton
