Round 10: Tossup 19

The BBC rejected the splicing of violent footage from a film starring this actor into the music video for Iron Maiden’s “The Trooper.” The title poem of a 1987 collection by Sandra Cisneros is titled for this actor’s notorious autobiography, My Wicked, Wicked Ways. (15[1])Track 9 on The Clash’s (15[1])album Combat Rock is a tribute to this actor’s son, (-5[1])a Time photojournalist who was likely murdered by the Viet Cong (15[1])during a motorcycle trip through Cambodia. This actor’s upbringing by a biologist father motivated his fistfight with a director over the death of 25 (*) horses on the set of The Charge of the Light Brigade. Two of this actor’s earliest climactic fight scenes (0[1])pit him against antagonists played by Basil Rathbone. The first of this actor’s films to be (10[1])scored by Erich Korngold was Captain Blood, (10[1])which established (10[1])his pairings with frequent co-star Olivia (10[1])de Havilland and director Michael Curtiz. For 10 points, name this Australian star of swashbucklers (10[1])like The (10[1])Adventures of Robin Hood. ■END■
