Cutthroat pirate William Kidd captures Admiral Blayne's treasure ship and hides the bounty in a cave. Three years later, Kidd, posing as a respectable merchant captain, offers his services to the King of England. Seeking a social position, Kidd also negotiates for Blayne's title and lands, provided he can prove Blayne was associated with piracy. Launched upon his royal mission, Kidd is unaware that Blayne's son Adam is among the crew, determined to clear his father's name.

Charles Laughton stands out amongst this rather motley cast in the eponymous role; sent by King Charles II (Henry Daniell) to escort a treasure ship from India. A bit like leaving the child in charge ...
John Chard
In days of old when ships were bold, just like the men that sailed them.
Captain Kidd is directed by Rowland V. Lee and adapted to screenplay by Norman Reilly Raine from a story by Robert N. Lee....
