Ihre Hoheit Die Tänzerin (film)
' (''Her Highness the Dancer'') is a 1922 German silent film directed by Richard Eichberg and featuring Bela Lugosi. The film was originally banned by the Film Review Office for quite some time: it was not permitted to be shown in the Weimar Republic. The filmmakers appealed, but the Office considered the film "corruptive" and the appeal was rejected A shortened version was again not approved. Finally on 16 January 1923 a version of the film, now retitled ' (''The Ordeal of Eva Grunwald'') was approved, considered suitable for adults only. This approved version consisted of five acts and totaled 1,887 meters of film, compared to the original's six acts and 1,995 meters.
