Lavishly mounted, espionage-tinged tale set in the waning days of Czarist Russia, where British envoy Stephen Locke (Leslie Howard) finds himself bound to block a potential armistice between the Bolsheviks and the Kaiser. Locke’s duties become that much more dicey when he rescues a beauteous Russian (Kay Francis) from mob violence, falls for her--and discovers she's Lenin's secretary. With William Gargan, Irving Pichel, and J. Carrol Naish as Trotsky. 80 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
