    Storyline

    Edit
    In London, August 1914, Austrian star Elsa Duranyi (Gertrude Michael) and English matinee idol Alan Barclay (Herbert Marshall) are in love and plan an immediate marriage. But the War comes and Elsa mysteriously disappears. Alan's ease in speaking German results in his appointment to the British Intelligence and, to aid his use as a spy, they announce he was killed in action. He takes the name and personality of "shell-shocked" Hans Teller, a German prisoner, and is sent into Germany on an exchange of prisoners. Elsa, now a spy in the service of the Fatherland, is in Monte Carlo, where Allied officers on leave can be tempted into revealing war secrets. In Germany, Alan, posing as Teller, is listed as unfit for service, contacts Carl Schrottle (Rod LaRocque), another British agent. They are to locate the German "Big Bertha," the long-range gun bombarding Paris. They are successful and the gun is destroyed. Elsa is recalled and given the assignment of locating the British spy organization and its members. Through her surveillance of Carl, she meets Hans Teller and recognizes him as Alan, but doesn't let on. Alone, she agrees to flee to Holland with him but her superior officer, Ludwig (Lionel Atwill), is not fooled and is in pursuit. —Les Adams <longhorn1939@suddenlink.net>

    What's your choice - love or country?
    It's 1914 in London and actor Herbert Marshall (Alan) is wooing Gertrude Michael (Elsa). It's the evening that war breaks out with Germany but these two lovers are on opposite sides when it comes to carrying out your duty for your country. Indeed, Gertrude is already one step ahead! Their love is torn apart as they are obliged to follow their paths as spies.

    The location changes to France & Germany and the different settings provide a constant interest as separate episodes are followed at a good pace. The rest of the cast are also effective. In one sequence, we see that Gertrude has a human side to her but she still carries out her task when called upon to reveal an enemy contact. She also has a crafty idea up her sleeve when put in a situation where she is carrying information and comes up against a cigarette check. I wonder if these checks really happened. The film has tense moments.

    The film is good entertainment and doesn't waste any time. Actually, I could have done without Marshall's creepy declarations of love at the beginning of the film. What on earth is he going on about? I guess he's just one of those dramatic actor types that likes to ramble on. Outside of his ideas about love, he carries out his part well.

    It's a short film but it takes you on a satisfying journey. We know that our 2 heroes are destined to come up against each other at some point in their new guises, and, of course, they do. Will love override their sense of duty?
