Technicolor! Ok. So sometimes the colors get a little over-the-top along with much of the styling. Is glitter really an appropriate choice for Errol Flynn when he's gallavanting in Sherwood Forest? Apparently, even Flynn complained, formally requesting that his ridiculous wig be altered so that he didn't look so...silly. But who cares. The men are dandified, Maid Marian is radiant, and this film will eternally be my image of Medieval costumery. RPG nerds take note. This is how it's done.
