The Fairy Doll

The Fairy Doll (German: Die Puppenfee) is a 1936 Austrian romance film directed by E.W. Emo and starring Adele Sandrock, Magda Schneider and Paul Hörbiger. It is based on the 1888 ballet work Die Puppenfee composed by Josef Bayer, owing more to the score than the libretto.[1] The film's sets were designed by the art director Julius von Borsody. It marked the screen debut of future star Hilde Krahl.[2]
