Sabotage Agent (1943) is a British spy thriller starring Robert Donat, Valerie Hobson, and Glynis Johns, directed by Harold S. Bucquet.The Blitz blazes on in England, but Captain Terence Stevenson (Donat), has been reassigned: he must become a saboteur and destroy a gas plant in occupied Czechoslovakia. Disguised as the recently deceased Jan Tartu (a Romanian of the Iron Guard), Terence finds his mission doubly difficult given that his contact to the underground was killed.Sent to a boarding house where the owner and her daughter, Paula (Johns), a Nazi officer called Otto, and the beautiful, yet haughty Marushuka (Hobson) live, he tries his best to keep up appearances as a Nazi working in a munitions factory while also trying to find his fellow conspirators.Having never been renewed for copyright, this film is in the public domain.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

The Dandy: Tartu cares seriously for his impeccable moustache, his pompadour, and his snazzy striped suit. | |

The Casanova: How Terence plays Tartu: he’s a complete flirt and cad whenever a beautiful woman is around. It plays well into his image as a Funny Foreigner, too. | |

Conveniently Unverifiable Cover Story | |
| The Adventures of Tartu / int_63c1170b | comment |
Conveniently Unverifiable Cover Story: Averted: Terence’s Tartu cover story is shaky at best since anyone who decides to call the German official whose signature is forged might very well find out he’s an imposter. Although it almost happens when he enters Czechoslovakia, his friends tap into the telephone line and stop him from being discovered. However, he’s not quite so lucky when Otto catches on. | |

False Friend | |
| The Adventures of Tartu / int_9b7de69c | comment |
False Friend: Marushuka believes Tartu to be this for a couple of reasons: he saves Paula from being caught by the Gestapo when she kills an officer, but rats her out when she tries to tamper the munitions; he knows German well; and the first man he meets who’s part of the underground is promptly killed. As it turns out, Tartu had to give up Paula or else his cover would be blown, and the other event was a case of bad luck. | |

Distracted by the Sexy: Otto is completely twirled around Marushuka’s little finger. | |
