Pina Menichelli’s compelling interpretation of an ambiguous charismatic heroine in the similarly ambiguous The Royal Tigress eloquently demonstrates why she is considered one of the greatest Italian actresses of the silent era, even though only a few films from her plentiful genre-spanning filmography survived.

Reviews (1)
Royal Tiger is a melodrama with a capital M, dominated by the distinctive performance of Pina Menichelli, a diva with a capital D. The story is quite simple at first glance and, in the spirit of the time and genre, is full of almost theatrical performances. On second glance, however, it impresses with well-constructed flashbacks and breathtaking technical execution, especially at the end. It is also the affected acting and the quirky content of the interludes that make Royal Tiger enjoyably humorous.
