''The Man in the Iron Mask'' is a {{swashbuckler}} film that was released by Creator/UnitedArtists in 1939. It is based loosely on Creator/AlexandreDumas' novel ''Literature/TheVicomteDeBragelonne'', using its characters -- Louis, Philippe, D'Artagnan, Athos, Porthos, Aramis, Nicolas Fouquet, Jean-Baptiste Colbert, Louise de La Valliere -- and allusion to the ManInTheIronMask legend but for a very different storyline. Nevertheless, later adaptations would use the tropes of this production more than the novel: Louis the villain and Philippe the hero, the Musketeers getting a heroic sendoff, etc. Produced by Edward Small and directed by Creator/JamesWhale (with a screenplay by George Bruce), the film stars Louis Hayward (in the dual role of the twin brothers), Joseph Schildkraut, Creator/JoanBennett, Walter Kingsford, and Warren Williams, Bert Roach, Alan Hale Sr., and Miles Mander as the Four Musketeers.

Twenty years pass. Philippe, the son spirited away, has grown into a good, heroic figure thanks to D'Artagnan and his Musketeer friends Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. Meanwhile, the son left to Royalty grows up to be King Louis XIV, a spoiled, cruel tyrant who makes the populace suffer under taxes and punishments. Fouquet, his self-seeking Minister of Finance, has Philippe and the Musketeers arrested and taken to the capital to be imprisoned. Certain situations force Louis and Fouquet to use Philippe to masquerade as the King. For the protection of his imprisoned father-figures, Philippe complies. This includes evading assassination attempts by the persecuted people, spending time with (and falling for) Louis' future bride Maria Theresa of Spain. Once the truth about Phiippe's birthright comes out, Louis decides to indefinitely imprison his twin brother, locking his features away in an Iron Mask, to be worn forever.
