Wiki.
The Great Impersonation is a 1935 Universal Pictures American drama film directed by Alan Crosland and starring Edmund Lowe, Valerie Hobson and Wera Engels. It was adapted from the 1920 novel The Great Impersonation by E. Phillips Oppenheim. The film bears some aesthetic similarities to the Universal horror films of the 1930s. Two other film versions of the story were produced with the same title in 1921 and 1942.
