The Man in the Iron Mask (1939)
De tirannieke koning Lodewijk XIV ontdekt dat hij een eeneiige tweelingbroer heeft, Philippe, die vanaf zijn geboorte is opgevoed door de vertrouwde vriend van zijn overleden vader, D'Artagnan, en zijn trouwe musketiers, Porthos, Athos en Aramis. Nadat Philippe verliefd wordt op de verloofde van de koning, de Spaanse prinses Maria Theresa, zet Louis hem gevangen en dwingt zijn broer een ijzeren masker op te zetten dat hem langzaam zal stikken. Het is aan D'Artagnan om hem te redden.
