Plot summary

A teenage tomboy, tired of being bossed around by her strict guardian, impersonates a man so she can have more fun. She quickly discovers that being the opposite sex isn’t as easy as she had hoped for. What ensues is a gender-bending comedy decades ahead of its time.

A fascinating cross-dressing comedy with some curiously casual homoerotic overtones. It's certainly not the best material Lubitsch ever worked with, and he's still coming into his own as a director, but his light touch is still evident, and Ossi Oswalda does some pretty terrific work in the headlining role. Fun, charming, with some simultaneously antiquated and progressive ideas about gender.

This Lubitsch directorial debut is instantly memorable. In

This Lubitsch directorial debut is instantly memorable. In this short film, he tells the tale of a young woman who, convinced that men get to have all the fun, disguises herself as a man, only to fall in love with another man at a party. This three reeler comedy is delightfully sexual ambiguous and its concept feels very ahead of its time particularly when we consider that this film was made in 1918. Nevertheless, it's also charming and elegant, never vulgar and never entirely silly, and although the gags are funny the romantic situations are equally as fun and charming.
