  Ivanhoe (Robert Taylor) is a knight whose quest is to save King Richard the Lionhearted (Norman Wooland) who has been captured during his return home from the Crusades. King Richard is imprisoned in Austria, and Ivanhoe plans to enter a tournament to raise ransom money to rescue him when Ivanhoe's evil brother Prince John (Guy Rolfe) refuses to pay for Richard's release. The lovely Rebecca (Elizabeth Taylor) pays Ivanhoe's entry fee for the tournament because Ivanhoe had rescued her Jewish father Isaac (Felix Aylmer) from the anti-Semites. But, Prince John's cohort De Bois-Guilbert (George Sanders) wants Rebecca for himself and kidnaps her. Action and chivalry abound, and, by story's end, good overtakes evil.
