This young manls the grandson of the late -Queen Victoria, and on his father's side comes from an even longer line than od his mother's. He married a young Cuban beauty.

Then there is the case of young William Hohenzollern, son of the former Crown Prince of Germany and grandson of the former Kaiser. He threw away his rights of succession to marry a young commoner of Italian This marriage took place when the prospects of the restoration of a monarchy in Germany were stronger than at any time since the war.

Adventure, romance. and tense conflict of those whom fate raises to heroic proportions are still the essence, of good screen drama. However, the dramatist must use his scalpel to show the sawdust stuffing of his idol.
