Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming Blu-ray release of Christian-Jaque's The Black Tulip (1964), starring Alain Delon, Virna Lisi, Dawn Addams, Akim Tamiroff, and Laura Valenzuela. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on March 18.

Description: Who is The Black Tulip? France's most daring masked avenger—one part Zorro and one part Robin Hood! In 1789 on the eve of the French Revolution, the townspeople of Roussillon live in fear of a tyrannical aristocracy. But a local hero emerges in the form of The Black Tulip (the dashing Delon). The Marquis (Akim Tamiroff, Alphaville), the Prince (Robert Manuel, Rififi) and the Baron try to quell his banditry, but this buccaneer for justice has the support of the revolutionaries and a very clever ace up his sleeve in the form of a twin brother!

Stylishly directed by Christian-Jaque (Fanfan la Tulipe) and shot in sumptuous color by Henri Decaë (Joy House), The Black Tulip (La Tulipe noire) has it all—comedy, intrigue, sword-swinging action and Delon's fiery romances with the ravishing Virna Lisi (Queen Margot) and dazzling Dawn Addams (Zeta One)!
