1800s Spanish California is the setting in which Douglas Fairbanks creates the prototype movie action-adventure hero–with surprising humor and athleticism–as "Señor Zorro". Slashing his trademark Z on the consciousnesses (and anatomies) of the henchmen of corrupt Governor Alvarado, Zorro leads the way to JUSTICE FOR ALL!
