Although MGM's 1929 adaptation of the sound film "Glorious Night" based on Ferenc Molner's "Olympia" proved to be a box office disaster (the studio attributed its failure to the voice of the male lead John Gilbert, although not entirely so), the studio remained committed to renovating the property in French, Spanish, and German versions. The French version of "Emperor Savart Ka" is starring Andre Lugay, while the Spanish version of "Olympia" is starring Jose Crespo. Olympia is also the name of the German version, and like the French version, it is directed by Jacques Feder. This time, Theodor Hill plays the handsome Lieutenant Kovacs, the beloved of the lovely Princess of Olympia (played by Nora Gregor). When the princess's arrogant mother ruined this relationship, the resentful Kovac threatened to tell the world that he had "; ruined"; That girl (not really!) makes her unsuitable for marriage. To ensure his silence, the lieutenant was promised to spend one night alone with Olympia before the wedding. It is at this point that Kovac married the princess, proving that he is a gentleman, which is what he has always wanted to do. In 1960, Olympia was remade as Scandal Breath.
