Fox Film
Directed by Emmett J. Flynn
My rating: 3 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Flicker Alley)
A sailor is framed for political treason by three men who are jealous of his recent promotion to captain and his upcoming marriage to the prettiest girl in town. He ends up in the dungeon of a French prison for the next 20 years. He befriends another prisoner and has an ingenious escape. He is also given a map which leads him to a treasure and gives him enormous wealth. He assumes a fake identity and heads to Paris, where he tracks down the men who framed him and plots his revenge. Briskly paced and never boring, John Gilbert is fine in the lead role.
