A serial presented in 12 episodes. American Robert Grant recently released from prison in India, becomes involved in the search for a diamond mine.
American adventurer Richard Grant is falsely accused of murdering an Indian noble and escapes to Africa in search of diamond field and the real culprit.
Robert Grant is an American in the east who bears an uncanny resemblance to a Raja. When the Raja is killed by a tiger he was hunting Grant is forced to take his place so that the Raja's cousin won't seize the throne before the rightful heir can ascend. Unfortunately for Grant his friend Harris sells him out to the evil cousin because Grant refused to hold onto the throne and rape the country of all its wealth. What follows is a long chase as Grant tries to prove his innocence while disguised as an Arab (he's jailed for murder but escapes) and help the only one who knows who he really is find her brother who is being held captive until he relays the location of a diamond mine.

Its a complex story that has more chapter breaks then cliffhangers. Shot partially silent this is a good looking serial that is an odd mix of locations that are nowhere near each other (Africa, India, the desert...). Despite not having a music score the film moves along reasonably well, even if the plot does tend to fold back on itself. The cast is pretty good with Boris Karloff one of the baddies looking for the diamond mine. Not the best, nor the worst but worth a look if you're in a forgiving mode, besides where else can you see an ape-man as a henchmen? It should be pointed out that the serial is what many would call racially insensitive. The portrayal of Arabs is mostly as villains and the black natives is of savages with bones through their noses.If you are offended by such portrayals, which were very much of the time this was made, look elsewhere. The longest chapter of course is the first at 32½ minutes. But there is still a considerable variance in the two-reel chapters which range all the way from 21 minutes (6) to 16 minutes (10). Total running time: 248 minutes. U.S. release: March 1931. U.K. release: June 1931.

Cut-down feature version (not released in the U.S.): BIMI.

SYNOPSIS: The complex story-line involves a lot of folderol about a letter written by a dying Rajah (Miller) which exonerates a young American (also Miller) of his murder and accuses his plotting half- brother (Auer) and his accomplice (Santschi) instead. Matters are complicated by a young man's (Nye) discovery of a diamond mine which an Arab sheik (Karloff) covets. The sheik is joined by the free-booting accomplice (who brings along his obedient ape-man, McLaglen), a vamp (Christie), an animal trader (Potel), and a secret service agent (Lalande).

NOTES: Locations outside Yuma, Arizona (desert scenes) and Bronson Canyon, North Hollywood. Interiors shot at Tec-Art Studios, Los Angeles. This was Mascot's third of 23 all-talking serials and was originally to star Harry Carey and Edwina Booth who both became unavailable when called back to M-G-M for re-takes on "Trader Horn".

COMMENT: Although it's obvious right from the start that Martha Lalande is no old lady, we know she couldn't possibly be the man in dark glasses because both characters are on screen at the same time in at least two chapters. It does strain credulity a bit when it finally turns out...

Never mind! Realism was never a Mascot virtue. Not that it matters when just about each episode — particularly numbers one through five — is so chock-a-block full of high-budget excitement. Six is the economy chapter. And there is a noticeable lessening of both pictorial splendors and thrills thereafter. But still plenty of derring-do, nonetheless.

Miller makes an agile hero, but lacks the confidence he was later to assume as a serial heavy. His impersonations are little short of ridiculous, but we like him. Nora Lane, of course, makes a splendid heroine; whilst Santschi plays the villainous Harris to a "T". The big disappointment is Karloff, who acts his Mustapha as a try-out for the duplicitous rajah in some Amateur presentation of "The Green Goddess".

Another letdown — though for the opposite reason — is provided by Dorothy Christie, that glorious vamp who is killed off at the end of Chapter Two. Let's hope she received an urgent call from M-G-M. Much as we like Miss Lane, the serial is the sorrier for Christie's absence.

Direction is smooth, photography atmospheric.
