Comment
An aging Don Juan returns to Seville where he is being impersonated by a younger version of him. When the impersonator is killed by a jealous husband he takes the opportunity to go into retiirement, but later tries to return and take up his old womanising role. This was Douglas Fairbanks last film and not his best. The screenplay is not great, but Merle Oberon and Bentia Hume do ttheir best with the material in the supporting female roles.
