Set in 15th century England, the film depicts a young knight's tumultuous upbringing. Director Rudolph Mate has skillfully directed the subject matter for CinemaScope. Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh co-star for the second time. --In the early 15th century, King Henry IV of England is old and in failing health, and the country is ruled by a parliament headed by the Earl of Orban (David Farrar). But Orban, the king's trusted advisor, is in fact a renegade vassal who has long been plotting against the throne, and has been secretly plotting against the crown prince, who is a drunkard and an incompetent. At the same time, Miles ( Tony Curtis ) and Meg ( Barbara Rush ), a brother and sister, are living in the house of Dickon, an old farmer in the village of Chrisvydale. When Lord Forwoth, whom Dickon served, was accused of being a rebel for Orban and the whole family was executed, he secretly took in the younger siblings and raised them. After a dispute with Orban's party, who had come to hunt near the village, Miles left the village with Meg and went to serve his late father's best friend, Lord McWhirce ( Herbert Marshall ), at his castle. There, Miles falls in love with Lord McWorth's only daughter, Anne ( Janet Leigh ). Meg becomes Anne's maid of honor and Miles becomes a knight candidate.
