Knight Without Armour (1937)

Second viewing; first viewed on May 8, 1997.

U.S. title: Knight Without Armor

Prior to the Russian Revolution, an English correspondent in Russia becomes a spy for England, and infiltrates a revolutionary group. He goes through several misadventures before and after the revolution and crosses paths with a Russian countess.

Well-made melodrama which does not have a remarkably interesting plot nor offers much insight into the inners of the turbulence in revolutionary Russia. Dietrich has one or two facial expressions which she uses in the course of the film.
