What happens

Princess Caraboo is a 1994 American historical comedy-drama film. It was directed by Michael Austin, and written by Austin and John Wells. The story is based on the real-life 19th-century character Princess Caraboo, who passed herself off in British society as an exotic princess who spoke a strange foreign language. It stars Phoebe Cates in her final film before she shifted her focus away from acting to raising her children. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
