This review is from: The Saint Takes Over / The Saint's Vacation [VHS] (VHS Tape)

THE SAINT TAKES OVER is a 1940 movie about Simon Templar's adventures which begin on board an ocean liner bound from London to New York. The villains in this case are gangsters who fix horse races. The role of the Saint (Simon Templar) is played by George Sanders for the fifth time in this series. The cast also includes Wendy Barrie, Jonathan Hale and Paul Guifoyle.

In THE SAINT'S VACATION Simon Templar tries to take a holiday in Switzerland but ends up instead immersed in a case involving espionage and a secret code. Hugh Sinclair gets his first chance in the role of the Saint. Also included in the cast are Sally Gray, Arthur MacRae and Cecil Parker.
