Don Q, Son of Zorro (1925) – A Silent Swashbuckler Sequel

Don Q, Son of Zorro is a 1925 silent adventure film directed by Donald Crisp and starring Douglas Fairbanks. The story follows Don Cesar de Vega, the son of Zorro, who travels to Spain to complete his education. While there, he becomes embroiled in a series of conflicts, including a rivalry with Don Sebastian and a romance with Dolores de Muro. Framed for murder, Cesar adopts the persona of Don Q, a whip-wielding outlaw, to clear his name and restore his honor. With thrilling action, romance, and Fairbanks’ charismatic performance, the film is a worthy sequel to *The Mark of Zorro* (1920).
