The Adventures of Robin Hood premiered in New York City on 12 May 1938.
Directed by Michael Curtiz (who had also directed Errol Flynn, Olivia De Havilland, and Basil Rathbone in Captain Blood 2 years earlier), Robin Hood was the most expensive film for Warner Bros. to date, but the film was a huge international success, earning back more than double its $2 million budget.
The film was nominated for 4 Academy Awards, including Best Picture (which went to You Can’t Take it With You), and received 3 Oscars: Best Editing (Ralph Dawson), Best Art Direction (Carl Jules Weyl), and Best Original Score (Erich Wolfgang Korngold). Michael Curtiz was nominated for 2 Academy Awards that year (Angels with Dirty Faces, and Four Daughters) but not for Robin Hood.
