THE BLACK SWAN
July 15, 2014  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

The setting is 17th-century Jamaica, and the most charismatic pirate in this Caribbean movie is played by Tyrone Power – with Maureen O’Hara playing an abducted noblewoman who becomes an initially reluctant piece of his pirate booty. So to speak.
