How it feels

What happens

Gæstespillet er en dansk stum dramafilm fra 1913 produceret af Nordisk Films Kompagni og instrueret af Eduard Schnedler-Sørensen efter eget manuskript. I den mandlige hovedrolle som Frede ses Valdemar Psilander, der var Nordisk Films største stjerne indtil sin død i 1917. Filmen havde dansk premiere den 23. juni 1913 i Panoptikon Teatret i København og blev i tysktalende lande distribueret som Das Gastspiel og i fransktalende lande som Une représentation de passage. Filmen er delvist bevaret, bortset fra begyndelsen og sidste del af slutscenen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
