What happens

The Dancer and the King: A Romantic Story of Spain (o The Dancer and the King) è un cortometraggio muto del 1908 diretto da James Stuart Blackton. La sceneggiatura si deve al reverendo Madison C. Peters, un religioso che, tra il 1908 e il 1909, scrisse per la Vitagraph quattro sceneggiature di carattere biblico. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
