But as long as you keep in mind that it's not a documentary, you'll certainly be entertained, and you'll probably pick up on a few interesting historical facts while watching.

The Crimson Pirate begins with the Caribbean pirate Captain Vallo and his crew capturing a ship that belongs to the King's navy. Little does Vallo know that he's about to get his crew tangled up in a rebellion against the monarchy on the island of Cobra, where the ship was headed. Vallo immediately begins scheming, and comes up with a plan to sell weapons to the rebels on the island. In time, however, he's persuaded into abducting their leader, El Libre, in exchange for a reward instead. Another twist quickly complicates things: Upon arrival at Cobra, Vallo begins falling for El Libre's daughter. Bursting with romance, comedy, and plenty of action, The Crimson Pirate has everything you could want in a pirate film.
