Ann Blyth in THE KING'S THIEF (1955)


Ann Blyth plays the daughter of a persecuted nobleman after the rise of Charles II in England in The King's Thief (1955), and she's out to find out what happened to her father and confront the evil fellow responsible - played by David Niven.  You can watch it today on Turner Classic Movies - 4:30 pm. ET. 

Ann is reunited with Edmund Purdom, who starred with her in The Student Prince (1954). George Sanders plays the lusty Charles II in this extravagant historical adventure, and look for a young and dashing Roger Moore early in his career.
