Madame Pompadour (German: '''Die Marquise von Pompadour''') is a 1931 German historical musical film directed by Willi Wolff and starring Anny Ahlers, Kurt Gerron, and Walter Jankuhn.[1] Part of the tradition of operetta films, it portrays the relationship between Madame de Pompadour and Louis XV of France. The film is not based on the operetta Madame Pompadour by Leo Fall. It was shot at the EFA Studios in Berlin while location filming took place at the Palace of Versailles.[2] A separate French version A Caprice of Pompadour was also released.
