The Doll Synopsis
As one of the acclaimed silent films made by director Ernst Lubitsch in Berlin, the romantic fantasy Die Puppe (AKA The Doll, 1919) concerns a young man almost completely devoid of vigor, who schemes to land a bride so that he can inherit a vast fortune. Instead of marrying a girl, he chooses to wed a lifelike (and life-) doll - little realizing that the plaything is actually the daughter of a toymaker in disguise.
