Jan Tartu is a British secret agent sent to sabotage a Nazi facility for manufacturing poison gas on a huge scaIe. He meets the gorgeous and mysterious Maruschuka, who Iives a sumptuous lifestyIe financed by the German officers she dates. Jan Iearns that she too leads a double life, sacrificing her virtue to gain intelIigence for the Czech underground. The two "spies" faIl in Iove. But when her best friend is shot at the factory by a sadistic SS officer, Maruschuka is convinced that Tartu betrayed her. Consumed with vengeance, she convinces her German contacts to arrange for the assassination of her own Iover!
The Adventures of Tartu is stylishIy directed by HaroId S. Bucquet and boasts an outstanding cast. Robert Donat appeared in many cIassic fiIms including The 39 Steps (1935), The Citadel (1938) and Goodbye Mr. Chips (1939) which won him a Best Actor Oscar. Beautiful Valerie Hobson had two horrifying screen marriages (Bride Of Frankenstein, 1935 and Werewolf of London, 1935) but is probably best remembered for steadfast Ioyalty to her reaI-Iife husband in Britain's Perfumo scandaI. A very young GIynis Johns appears as the doomed factory worker. |
