About The Sword of Granada
In this period costume swashbuckler, Don Pedro de Rivera, the rightful owner of a Spanish castle seeks to reclaim it from an occupying Moorish Caliph. Don Pedro’s accomplice is Juan Ponce de León, who intends to steal the "Rose of Granada," a rare gem owned by the Caliph, which supposedly contains a rare essence that ensures eternal youth.
Directed by Edward Dein, Carlos Véjar Jr., The Sword of Granada leans on a strong ensemble — Cesar Romero, Katy Jurado, Rebeca Iturbide — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 1954.
