A film studies student is researching early 20th-century film serials, which consisted of individual episodes of a single long story that were shown weekly in theaters. The Shadow of the Eagle is a 1932 serial that, over its 12 episodes, kept its audience interested with the suspense and drama that are typical of the crime genre. The student, however, claims that ultimately audiences of the time preferred resolution and closure over ongoing tension.
