Thirteen years after making this film, in which he played the villainous ruler of a fictitious country called "Lichtenburg" (an obvious combination of the real-life small countries Lichtenstein and Luxemburg), George Sanders played a sympathetic role in the musical "Call Me Madam," also set in "Lichtenburg."
Louis Hayward and George Sanders played the role of Simon Templar, a.k.a. The Saint, in different films.
Released the same year as 20th Century Fox's The Mark of Zorro (1940), both films share the same plot device in which the hero masquerades as a foolish dilletante in order to catch the villain off his guard later.

"Opening crawl: Menaced by more powerful nations, the country of Lichtenburg - tiny but proud - is known as the Jewel of the Balkans. Steeped in the ancient traditions of romance and chivalry, her people hold unswerving loyalty to the throne - on which now sits the young Grand Duchess Zona, who rules under the sinister shadow of one man, General Gurko Lanen."
