Legend:

Robin Hood

"Robin Hood (spelled Robyn Hode in older manuscripts) is a heroic outlaw in English folklore, a highly skilled archer and swordsman. Although not part of his original character, since the beginning of the 19th century he has become known for "robbing from the rich and giving to the poor", assisted by a group of fellow outlaws known as his "Merry Men". Traditionally, Robin Hood and his men are depicted wearing Lincoln green clothes. The origin of the legend is claimed by some to have stemmed from actual outlaws, or from ballads or tales of outlaws."

We know Robin Hood as the man who steals from the rich to give to the poor. He wears a green tunic and has a very distinctive green hat. Robin Hood is high on the list of  ‘most movies made about a legend’ (there are definitely more movies about Robin Hood than there are about Sasquatch) although there are many movies about Robin and his Merry Men, some may be interested in the Holy Grail instead.
