A mature and visually elegant period romance that remains one of the earliest and most compassionate overtly gay-themed films in movie history. Based upon Herman Bang's 1902 novel, Dreyer's Michael refashions the classical Greek myth of Jupiter and Ganymede into a love triangle between an aging artist, Zoret, his protagonist Michael, and Princess Zamikoff, an aristocratic femme fatale as entranced by Michaelβs youthful beauty as Zoret is.
Directed by Carl Theodor Dreyer
Written by: Herman Bang, Carl Theodor Dreyer, Thea von Harbou
Produced by Erich Pommer
