The Vikings (1958)

In the heart of the Middle Ages, the thunderous echoes of Viking warriors resonate along the English coast, their relentless raids painting a brutal portrait of conflict. Among these fierce marauders is their leader, Ragnar, who ruthlessly ends the reign of an English king and takes the queen as his own. As the fallen king's brother ascends the throne, a royal secret is born from the ashes of the old regime - the queen's child, a boy of royal blood, is hidden away, destined to grow up far from the treacherous new king. Twenty years pass like whispers in the wind, and the Vikings, undeterred by time, continue their assaults on England. Armed with detailed maps of the English coast crafted by Egbert, a captive Englishman, the Vikings are more formidable than ever. Einar, the robust and impetuous son of Ragnar, rules with the same brutal hand as his father, while Eric, a slave captured in infancy, serves under their cruel reign. A mysterious necklace, a relic from his past, reveals to Egbert that Eric is a son of the queen and thus, Einar's half-brother. Amid this web of secrets and power, Morgana, a bewitching Welsh beauty and betrothed of the English king, is kidnapped, setting a stage rife with tension and intrigue. Unbeknownst to each other, Einar and Eric are not just bound by their Viking ties, but also by royal blood. As they vie for the vacant Northumbrian throne in Britain, their competition is not only for power, but also for the heart of the enchanting Morgana. As the waves of the inevitable clash rise, the story of two half-brothers unravels, their shared lineage pitted against their divergent ambitions in a saga steeped in revenge, love, and the fight for a kingdom.
