Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Sanders displaying his Prussian mannerisms for the first time in a dual role as a British naval lieutenant is required to impersonate a captured German baron for purposes of World War I espionage. You've seen it all before, what with Lorre and Ruman leading the nasty Huns, while Del Rio is mightily torn between love and duty as the siren assigned to trap Sanders. The title? That's a bit of a mystery.Author: TM
