THE STUDENT PRINCE (1927) 191 Ever since Richard Mansfield produced Old Heidelberg, early in the century, the tale of the royal student who falls in love with a serving maid and has to leave her to take his place on the throne has been a favorite with playgoers. When Dorothy Donnelly and Sigmund Romberg revamped it into an operetta, The Student Prince, its transference to the screen was only a matter of time. M-G-M filmed it (the operetta version) in 1927, costarring Norma Shearer and Ramon Novarro, with Ernst Lubitsch as director. BELOW Corinne Griffith, "the orchidaceous star," as the press department liked to call her, was undoubtedly one of the loveliest girls ever to appear on the screen. She is shown here in a scene from Lady in Ermine. With her is the great lover of the 'teens, Francis X. Bushman, in the role of, believe it or not, the villain.
