이 영화에 대해 실행 80 minutes and mostly focuses on the exchanges between its two stars, Colman and Oland. 불행하게도, it causes the film to drag a little at spots.

Ronald Coleman was born on February 9, 1891 in Richmond, Surrey, England. 위키 백과에 따르면,, Colman was originally going to study to be an engineer but his father died at a young age. Colman’s family could not afford for him to go. By now, he was already an accomplished amateur actor.

Colman was seriously injured during his service during World War I. He would have a limp that he would have to hide during his film career. He would start making films in 1917 but it was the arrival of sound that would make him a film star.

My favorite Colman film is If I Were King (1939), where he played the poet and swordsman Fracois Villon. The film is a highly romanticized version of Villon’s life (Villon was involved in criminal behavior) but Colman is at his suave best.

Colman was married to Benita Hume, an accomplished actress. They had one daughter. Colman was active in films and television until his death from emphysema on May 19, 1958 세의 나이에 67.

Warner Oland was pretty good in this film as Prince Achmed. Before he started playing Charlie Chan, Oland played a number of villainous Orientals such as Fu Manchu and Prince Achmed. He generally gave a good performance in whatever role he was handed.
