The Corsican Brothers Movie Review 1942

Siamese-twins Mario and Lucien are separated by Dr. Paoli (Warner) shortly before their parents are murdered by evil Colonna (Tamiroff). One boy is sent to Paris and the other grows up in the Corsican mountains. Reunited as adults (and dashingly played by Faribanks Jr.), the twins plot revenge. Entertaining swashbuckler based on a novel by Alexandre Dumas.
