Synopsis by Hal Erickson. Even without the benefit of sound, The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg seems to be inundated by Franz Lehar's unforgettable songs. Director Ernst Lubitsch fashioned a gloriously schmaltzy, delightfully artificial rendition of the 1924 Lehar opera, which in turn was based on the 1902 play In Old Heidelberg.
“The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg” is the crowning piece of the Ernst Lubitsch’s silent era. The film depicts a romance between a young monarch and a beer hall kellnerin (waitress).
