The Duellists (1977) D: Ridley Scott

[KyFi]

Mark of Zorro, from 1940 has some of the best on-screen fencing, IMO.

Also, Scaramouche from 1952---classic kungfu-ish story of a guy training with a master to avenge the death of his friend by an evil swordmaster. Great 6 minute final duel.

Theres a lot in Europe from the fifties throughout the seventies they were very popular
Especially French and Italy made movies I've seen a lot
when I was a kid
''Fan fan le tulipe'' with Gerard Philippe
''Zorro'' with Alain Delon
''Black Pirate'' with Kabir Bedi
and Jean Marais has a lots of movies like that he did his own stunts and he had a movie ''Mysteryes of Paris''
where he used kicks in every fight scene(French martial art 'savate')that was not a sword movie though but in the early seventies it was very surprising
