In eighteenth-century England, the humble vicar Dr. Christopher Syn leads a double life. By day, he is the respected vicar of Dymchurch; by night, he becomes the masked Scarecrow, leading a band of smugglers to resist the harsh taxes and oppressive tactics of King George III and his agents. Packed with clandestine rescues, daring escapes across Romney Marsh, and dramatic confrontations, *Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow* (1963) balances action, intrigue, and moral conflict in a period setting. The film avoids gratuitous violence, instead emphasizing clever subterfuge, loyalty, and the cost of resistance.
