Buy a title cut rate
12 December 2018
World War I left a lot of unemployed nobility and royalty and many like Patric Knowles were doing all kinds of real work to pay the rent. But they still have their titles. And there's a lot of rich folks who might like to have one.

Such a one is Beverly Roberts an actress who is somewhat past her prime and she's gone to Europe in hopes of picking up her career.. Maybe a title might do it and through the good offices of title broker Vladimir Sokoloff she winds up with Knowles whom she had dealings with as a waiter. He probably makes a better prince than waiter.

This one's a subpar comedy and I'm willing to bet this might have been offered to Errol Flynn and Olivia DeHavilland who wisely turned it down. Knowles was not good at all as the former prince of some Ruritanian principality. I'm not sure if he was trying an accent or not.

I'd skip this one.
