8175 Code SENAR The Fighting Eagle DeMille
Featuring Rod LaRocque, Sam DeGrasse and Phyllis Haver
Etienne Gerard (Rod LaRocque), grandson of the keeper of an inn on the Spanish border, is enlisted in Napoleon's army as his reward for aiding the Countess De Launay (Phyllis Haver), a secret service agent, to escape Talleyrand (De Grasse) and reach the Emperor safely with papers giving France cause to declare war against Spain. Later, as Captain Gerard, of the Fighting Eagles, he arouses the enmity of the other officers by boasting of his friendship with Napoleon.
Suddenly Countess De Launay appears and takes him on a secret mission as her lackey, to steal treasonable papers from Talleyrand. They are surprised before they can escape with the papers and the proud Gerard is sent back to Napoleon in a chest, disgraced. The Countess slips the papers in the chest, but when it is opened in front of the Emporer, Gerard is unable to find the hidden papers. He is returned to his regiment in disgrace and sentenced to be shot for being absent without leave.
How he recovers the papers and vindicates himself, even by kidnapping the Emperor, and receives his imperial congratulations and promotion before his chagrined fellow officers, must be seen to be fully appreciated.
Romance, intrigue and suspense are combined in this thrilling story of one of the outstanding eras in history. Recommended for any audience. 1986 feet— on 5 reels Rental $5.00
