Swashbuckling French count Louis Hayward goes incognito to help princess Joan Bennett of a neighboring country fight tyrannical general George Sanders. Under the name of "The Torch", he prints leaflets which undermine the general and leads the local townsfolk in an uprising. He has plenty of opportunities to rescue the helpless princess, falling in love along the way. Great Saturday afternoon matinee fun.
