Released in 1933, The Castle in the South is a notable film directed by Géza von Bolváry.
What it’s about. Another fine film from the master of stylish early German comedies, Geza von Bolvary. This may not be among Bolvary's major works, but the story of a prince (Victor de Kowa) who substitutes for an actor playing a prince in a film without anyone knowing that he's a prince, which in the following leads to a plot in which the prince pretends to be a prince until someone reveals that he isn't a prince even though he is a prince… ahm… I know it's confusing… well, this story is entertaining indeed, and of course leads to some amorous troubles.
Who’s in it. The Castle in the South stars Liane Haid as Maria Foreni, Viktor de Kowa as Mirano, Paul Kemp as Ottoni and Erik Ode as Tonio, among others.
How it landed. With an audience score of 5.0/10, The Castle in the South has proved divisive with audiences.
