Synopsis:
With spectacular Technicolor photography, and sumptuous production values, Stewart Granger stars in this 1952 second remake of the famous Anthony Hope novel as Rudolf, the would-be King of Rurutania, who on the eve of his coronation is kidnapped by the henchmen of his wicked half-brother the Duke of Streslau (Robert Douglas) as part of a conspiracy to usurp the throne. As fortune would have it, Rudolf Rassendyll (also played by Granger) appears on the scene. Rassendyll so strikingly resembles the King that he is enlisted by loyal Colonel Zapt (Louis Calhern) to save the crown. Rassendyll's adventure leads him to romance with the beautiful Princess Flavia (Deborah Kerr) to a web of treachery which finally culminates in cloak-and-dagger combat with the villianous Rupert (James Mason).
