So THE CORSICAN BROTHERS ended with one dead and the other installed in a happy life? Think again! Such things don't happen in the movies when a sequel might bring in more money. And so we have Richard Greene and himself, with the one who supposdly died having come down with amnesia for five years, succored by gypsies, loved by the fiery Dona Drake, and th whose band is on Corsica, looking to pick up some money entertaining the people. Meanwhile, Raymond Burr has become a tyrant over Corsica, which is being opposed by the one with memory and his beautiful Countess, Paula Raymond They will confuse the heck out of. The bad guys, who wants Miss Raymond. So too will the gypsy Richard Greene when he inevitably gets his memory back.
It soon settles down into the usual swashbuckling tropes, as Good Richard Greene fights both Raymond Burr and Bad Richard Greene. It would all be bog-standard stuff, except for a few nice dueling sequences, and a really good performance by Raymond Burr. There's a reason he was in demand as a movie villain.
