    worth watching!
    This early German comedy is really a fun to watch! It is a pity that I only own a very bad copy of this film - and I am afraid it is difficult to get in general.

    The plot is surprisingly original with a lot of fine ideas: The wealth of a very small town has its beginning in nothing but a myth. A real clever idea - and the development of the plot is very entertaining, too!

    The TV-version contains all the scenes taken out by the Nazis later on and are marked as "censored", so you can see for yourself what they did not find fitting.

    I do hope this film will be shown on TV more often and will be available for a lot of people soon!
