Don Q, Son of Zorro (1925)
Running time: 135 mins
In this sequel to his 1920 swashbuckling box office hit The Mark of Zorro, Douglas Fairbanks not only reprises his role of Zorro but also takes on the role of Zorro’s son Don Cesar de Vega. Don Cesar (Fairbanks) crosses swords with a vicious officer of the Queen’s Guard and steals the affection of a young heiress. When the officer frames the young upstart for murder, Don Cesar must sacrifice everything he holds dear to survive. If anything, Don Q, Son Zorro surpasses the excitement and action of The Mark of Zorro and confirmed Douglas Fairbanks as one of the true greats of the first classic era of Hollywood. Live musical accompaniment by Meg Morley. Restoration from Film Preservation Associate France, Paris. The Wareham Silent Film Weekender is supported by BFI Film Audience Network.
