The Prince and the Pauper (1920 film)

The Prince and the Pauper German Prinz und Bettelknabe is a 1920 Austrian silent adventure film directed by Alexander Korda and starring Tibor Lubinszky, Albert Schreiber and Adolf Weisse. It is based on Mark Twains 1881 novel The Prince and the Pauper about a poor boy who switches places with Edward, Prince of Wales in Tudor England.

The films financial success in America inspired Korda towards his later ambitions to make international films which would have global market appeal, a strategy he put into place when working later in Britain which led to the worldwide success of his 1933 film The Private Life of Henry VIII.
