Flynn beats Depp in pirates poll



New York, July 10 (IANS) Swashbuckler Errol Flynn has dented Johnny Depp's 'Pirates Of The Caribbean' celebrations by winning Hollywood's top buccaneer title in a new World Entertainment News Network (WENN) poll.

According to contactmusic.com, WENN editors teamed up with British buccaneer buff David Cordingley, a consultant on the first 'Pirates of The Caribbean' movie, to scour the movie seas in a bid to come up with the definitive movie pirates poll.

The expert chooses Flynn's Captain Blood as the pick of the pirates, ahead of Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow.

Cordingley says: 'Johnny Depp is hugely entertaining as Captain Jack Sparrow - he is creepy, ruthless and he has an untrustworthy look about him but no one can beat Errol Flynn. He had the charisma. He was tremendously good looking and physically convincing. He really did fence and in real-life he was a hard-drinking, hard-living chap, so I guess he came pretty close to becoming Hollywood's version of a pirate. He has the edge over all the other movie pirates.

WENN's top ten pirates are:

1. Errol Flynn as Dr. Peter Blood - 'Captain Blood' (1935)

2. Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow - 'Pirates Of The Caribbean' (2003-2006)

3. Robert Newton as Long John Silver - 'Treasure Island' (1950)

4. Tyrone Power as Jamie Waring - 'The Black Swan' (1942)

5. Douglas Fairbanks as The Black Pirate - 'The Black Pirate' (1926)

6. Charles Laughton as Captain William Kidd - 'Captain Kidd' (1945)

7. Dustin Hoffman as Captain Hook - 'Hook' (1991)

8. Walter Matthau as Captain Thomas Bartholomew Red - 'Pirates' (1986)

9. Robert Newton as Blackbeard - 'Blackbeard, The Pirate' (1952)

10. Wallace Beery as Long John Silver - 'Treasure Island' (1934).
