The Oyster Princess
Dir.: Ernst Lubitsch | 60 minutes

The Oyster Princess

Germany 1919 | 60 minutes | Silent | Hebrew, English subtitles

An American "oyster king" tries to appease his daughter by finding her a prince to marry, but not all is what it seems. The Oyster Princess is a cornerstone of Lubitsch's filmography, one of the first works to showcase The Lubitsch Touch, with witty laconic humor, fantastic use of close-ups, and the ability to refine every scene and give each visual power.
