His Highness is Having a Good Time

In 'His Highness is Having a Good Time,' Princess Melani disguises herself as a maid to learn more about her future husband. The story unfolds as her fiancé assumes the role of a secretary, leading to a series of comedic misunderstandings.

The film also features an addlebrained servant who is hilariously tasked with impersonating a count, resulting in absurd situations, including his self-serving decision to increase his own pay. The playful dynamics between the characters, including flirtations and mistaken identities, make this 1917 comedy a notable entry in the silent film era.

Collectors of classic cinema may appreciate the film's unique narrative and its representation of early 20th-century comedic storytelling. The top cast includes Ernst Pittschau, Anna Müller-Lincke, Lea Lara, and Victor Janson, all of whom contribute to the film's charm.
