Talking about a Revolution? The 1968 Italian TV adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s 'The Black Arrow' - The Bottle Imp

The Corriere della sera anonymous review of the first episode of La freccia nera,⁠ broadcast by state-owned TV RAI (Radiotelevisione Italiana) on the evening of December 22nd 1968, did not brim with enthusiasm.
