"The Son of Monte Cristo" is a 1940 Black-and-white film directed by Rowland V. Lee and starring Louis Hayward, Joan Bennett, George Sanders.

In 1865, General Gurko Lanen is dicator of "Lichtenburg" in the Balkans. Rightful ruler Zona hopes to get aid from Napoleon III of France. The visiting Count of Monte Cristo falls for Zona and undertakes to help her, masquerading as a foppish banker and a masked freedom fighter. The rest is rapid-fire intrigue and derring-do.

The Film takes the same name as the unofficial "Sequel" The Son of Monte Cristo written by Jules Lermina in 1881.
