Trama
Anthony Mann racconta la Rivoluzione francese come un thriller in costume. L'eroe è un giovane seguace di Barras, il futuro capo del golpe contro Robespierre e Saint-Just. Barras, per portare a compimento il colpo di Stato, ha bisogno di impossessarsi del "libro nero" in cui sono segnati tutti i nemici del dittatore giacobino. Incarica perciò un giovane amico di trafugarlo: questi ci riesce. Robespierre e i seguaci vengono arrestati.
