AGAINST ALL FLAGS

Product Information

There is beautifully filmed scenery of shorelines, ships, and the bay. Lots of action too of sword fighting clashes, ship battles, daring leaps of Errol Flynn (Robin Hood on board ship!).

In The Count of Monte Cristo (2002), the inmates of Château d'If are given a lashing on the anniversaries of their arrivals, with one lash per year. Done just to remind them how long they had been there.In "The Archeologist in the Cocoon," the Victim of the Week has scars to his skeleton indicating he was whipped at some point. His wife confirms that her father did it to punish him for their relationship. In the novel Night, by Elie Wiesel, which is the autobiographical story of the author's time in a concentration camp when he was young, he is whipped for inadvertently seeing one of the officers seeing a woman and preparing to have sex with her. Subverted by Catwoman, who never uses her trademark whip to cut people — only to disarm, ensnare, or simply frighten them. She did once thrash Batman across the face with the butt of her whip, making him bleed, but that's not really a lashing.
