The Arrows of Robin Hood is a 1975 Soviet adventure film directed by Sergei Tarasov .
action
Robin Hood takes part undercover in an archery organized by the Sheriff of Nottingham . Here he not only wins the main prize, a silver arrow with a gold tip, and has to flee from the sheriff's men, but also meets the beautiful miller's daughter Maria. When he wants to visit her with his newly found companion brother Tuck, he just witnesses how the cruel Guy of Gisborne has the miller shot and his mill goes up in flames. Maria is now coming to Sherwood Forest with Robin Hood .
According to tradition, before a meal, Robin Hood's men stop a knight who is riding through the forest in order to ask him to eat and to receive alms from him at the same time. Alan-a-Dale, who is escorted to dinner by them, turns out to be penniless. Even more: as a crusader he was far away from home for years, has now returned home and has learned that the Bishop of Herford drove his father to his death. He also got the lock pawned by him, which Alan now wants to buy for 400 gold pieces. Robin Hood and his men give their jewelry and the prize arrow and Alan gets the money together. In addition, he is able to prevent Sir Edmund's marriage to his lover Lady Anne, who must believe that he has fallen, and through Brother Tuck he takes Lady Anne as his wife. Alan and Anne are murdered from behind by Edmund's people shortly after the wedding.
A little later, the Sheriff of Nottingham kidnaps Robin Hood's lover Maria. He announces that Mary will be publicly executed as a witch the next day. That same night, Robin Hood and his men raided the estate of Guy von Gisborne, who was killed in the process. In the uniforms of the men of Gisbornes, Robin Hood's followers go to Nottingham and free Mary. It comes to the final fight between the sheriff's men and those of Robin Hood, from which Robin Hood emerges as the winner.

criticism
“Long-winded, sometimes seemingly incoherent adventure film in a historical guise. A mixture of romanticism, brawls and anti-clerical tendencies, overloaded with dialogue, ”said the film service .
