Robin Hood, the silent movie versions.



Above: Robin Hood (Robert Frazer) fights a duel against an unknown stranger who turns out to be King Richard (Arthur Hollingsworth), in Robin Hood (1912). Below: Maid Marian (Barbara Tennant), Will Scarlet (Charles Hundt), Little John (Guy Oliver), and Alan A dale (George Larkin). 



Above: Guy of Gisborne (Paul Dickey), the Earl of Huntingdon / Robin Hood (Douglas Fairbanks), and Lady Marian (Enid Bennett), in the 1922 epic.

Above: Prince John, before an impressive film set. In 1922 Hollywood would actually build such sets for real. On the right is Friar Tuck, played by Willard Louis.
