My Friend From India 1927

This offbeat comedy-drama concerns Tommy Valentine, a young man whose path crosses with that of Barbara, the niece of local socialite Bedelia Smith. Unfortunately, he neglects to learn her name, and in desperation decides to consult a mystic Swami to determine who she is. Meanwhile, Bedelia’s slothful nephew Charlie spends his evenings entertaining an imaginary Hindu Prince and grows exhausted by the task, especially after the prince starts keeping him up late at night. When Charlie’s mother decides to have a local soiree, Charlie suddenly gets pressured to bring the prince to the affair.
