A princess is torn between her royal obligations and her love for a handsome Frenchman.
From the archive
This is a 1833 restored public domain movie starring Claudette Colbert, Fredric March, and Alison Skipworth. The script was based on the 1927 play "The Queen was in the Parlor" by Noel Coward. It was restored from a rough DVD copy. The plot concerns a princess who falls in low with a commoner, which conflicts with her duty to marry another man. Because it is a pre-code movie, the princess can be frank about her sexual history. The film would probably now be G rated with no profanity or nudity and only some tame violence. The cast includes: Claudette Colbert as Princess NadyaFredric March as Sabien PastalAlison Skipworth as Grand Duchess EmilieArthur Byron as Gen. KrishPaul Cavanagh as Prince KeriEthel Griffies as ZanaClay Clement as SeminoffWarburton Gamble as AlexEdwin Maxwell as mob leader(from Wikipedia)
