[quote="lluis600"como lo descargo? [/quote]

Roisiano, tal como te comenté en otro foro hace ya más de un mes, este "Scarecrow" parece ser un remake de Captain Clegg (Peter Graham, 1962), con Peter Cushing y Oliver Reed, entre otros grandes. Una película más que recomendable, a mi juicio muy superior a ésta y que sin duda debieron ver los de La Cuadrilla anted de rodar Matías, juez de línea.

Te lo recuerdo ahora por que se me ocurre pensar que podías incluir el dato en la presentación, lo que tal vez ayudaría al personal a situarse mejor.

En todo caso, gracias por compartir.

Pinchada, gracias.

En realidad Mantua tanto la de este hilo como la de Cushing y Reed son remakes de la de 1937.

The Reverend Doctor Christopher Syn is the smuggler hero of a series of novels by Russell Thorndike.[4] The first book, Doctor Syn: A Tale of the Romney Marsh[5] was published in 1915.
Movies

Three film adaptations have been made of Dr. Syn's exploits.

• Doctor Syn (1937)
  
  The first, Doctor Syn (1937), featured noted actor George Arliss in the title role and was its star's last film.

• Captain Clegg (1962)
  
  In 1962, Captain Clegg (known as Night Creatures in the U. S. but also released as Dr. Syn) was produced by Hammer Film Productions with horror movie actor Peter Cushing in the lead role, directed by Peter Graham Scott. In the screenplay by Anthony Hinds, the main character's name was changed from Doctor Syn to Parson Blyss to avoid rights problems with Disney's upcoming film version, and Captain Clegg's screenplay follows the novel Doctor Syn and the screenplay of the 1937 film closely with the exception of a tightening of the plot. In the Arliss movie Doctor Syn, Syn escapes to sea with Mipps and the rest of the Dymchurch smugglers, whereas Captain Clegg ends more faithfully to the novel, with Parson Blyss being killed by the mulatto (who is then killed by Mipps) and then being carried to and buried in Captain Clegg's empty grave by Mipps. Night Creatures was never released on videotape in the United States, but is included in the two-disc DVD collection The Hammer Horror Series.

• The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh (1963)
  
  Another version, The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh, was produced as a three-part television miniseries by Walt Disney in 1963. It starred Patrick McGoohan of Danger Man/Secret Agent and The Prisoner fame in the title role and was directed by James Neilson. While originally conceived and edited for American television (and announced in an advertisement by NBC in the Tuesday, July 9, 1963 issue of The Hollywood Reporter), the production was re-edited for a British theatrical run before the American television debut. Titled Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow, the British theatrical version was released on a double bill with The Sword in the Stone, and ran during the 1963 Christmas season (advertised in the January 1964 issue of Photoplay). This version was shown in Europe as well as Central and South America through 1966.
  
  In the 1970s, the production was re-edited again for its first American theatrical release, on double bills with both Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Treasure Island. (The VHS version of the 1980s, sharing the removal of the Scarecrow's laugh from Terry Gilkyson's title song, was expanded to include the story material from all three TV episodes, while retaining feature film structure and credits; it was available for a relatively short amount of time.) Shortly after the US theatrical run, it was re-edited yet again for a two-part presentation on Disney's television series in the 1970s, simply omitting the middle segment. The original three-part miniseries version was first shown on Disney's Wonderful World Of Color, February 9, 16 and 23, 1964, and shown again there a few times, included in a late 1980s Wonderful World of Disney syndicated rerun package, and cablecast in 1990s on the Disney Channel. This version generally followed the storyline of The Further Adventures of Dr. Syn and made it clear that Syn did not die or stage his own death: at film's end, he is having a cup of tea with the Squire, who admits to now owing a debt of gratitude to the Scarecrow.
  
  On November 11, 2008 the Walt Disney company released a limited pressing of 39,500 issues of The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh in DVD format for the first time as a part of the "Disney Treasures" collection, and was now called Dr. Syn: The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh. The issue sold out in three weeks, but as of February 17, 2009 the DVD was made available for members of the Disney movie club for $29.95. The two-disc set includes the American television version and the theatrical version Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow in widescreen format. It also includes the original introductions by Walt Disney and a documentary on Disney's interest in the property. The Disney version was shot on location in England. The church in the movie is St Clement's Church in the village of Old Romney, which was restored by the film company.

• Other adaptations
  
  Made in 1974, Carry On Dick, of the celebrated Carry On series of films, followed the same premise of a country vicar (Sid James) who is secretly an outlaw, in this case the highwayman Dick Turpin.

Ahora me voy que paso el día fuera pero sería interesante buscar esa versión del 37 y comparar las diferentes versiones.
