Review by Leofwine_draca

MARIE OF THE ISLES is a French costume adventure flick starring the ill-fated Belinda Lee in one of her last roles. She plays an innkeeper's daughter who falls for a charming adventurer, but the path to true love doesn't run smoothly when he ends up jailed and she married to someone else. It's a typical entry of its type with alluring females, swarthy men and a fair bit of political intrigue, backstabbing, and some action. Lee certainly looks fetching here and is no mean actress either, but I found some of the men quite staid and the direction, as with many films made during this era, quite pedestrian.
