In this captivating epic of intrigue, action and romance, the handsome and masterful Tyrone Power shines in the title role as Andrea Orsini, a bold and courageous warrior. The setting is Renaissance Italy, where the notorious and violent Borgia family, led by Cesare Borgia (Orson Welles), is determined to capture neighboring lands and expand the family's empire, power, and wealth. As a Borgia spy-soldier, Orsini is dispatched to a small territory Cesare hopes to capture. But Orsini becomes captivated by the intelligence and charm of the Duke and his young wife. Torn between allegiance to his master and a growing friendship with his assigned victims, Orsini becomes embroiled in a fierce and spectacular battle that forces him to confront his ideas of justice and nobility. Leon Shamroy's superb cinematography of the Italian countryside provides a lush background for the film's drama and adventure. (Kino Lorber)
