The Gentleman Who Can Be Booked (1930)
This 'musical burlesque' tells about a stylish young gentleman who works as a so-called 'Festredner', a person who makes speeches at important events like marriages etc. for people who don't feel able to do it themselves. Willi lends his voice to a speech-impaired professor, but the baroness who falls in love with Hörbiger only does so because of Willi's voice, and this leads to all sorts of complications…
