About Circus Girl
Sequel to “Stars above Columbo”: Yrida, a circus rider who has been abducted to India, wakes up in the maharajah's palace, where the court physician convinces her that she has only dreamed all the terrible events. The maharaja tries to win her love. At the same time, assassins are planning to overthrow the maharaja. The maharaja's son, Gowaran, falls under suspicion. His innocence is only proven when the temple dancer and lover of the maharaja chooses suicide. The maharaja abdicates and appoints his son as his successor. Now Yrida gets the man she really loves.
Directed by Veit Harlan, Circus Girl leans on a strong ensemble — Kristina Söderbaum, Willy Birgel, Adrian Hoven — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 1954.
