Miss Julie (German: '''Fräulein Julie''') is a 1922 German silent drama film directed by Felix Basch and starring Asta Nielsen, William Dieterle, and Lina Lossen.[1] It was based loosely on August Strindberg's 1888 play Miss Julie.
Julie, a young noble woman, is drawn to a senior servant, a valet named Jean, who is particularly well-traveled, well-mannered and well-read.
Miss Julie passed the film censorship on 24 November 1921 and premiered on 2 February 1922 at the Marmorhaus. The five-act play was 1589 meters long.
The film's sets were designed by the art directors Robert Herlth and Walter Röhrig.
