The Spessart Inn (German: Das Wirtshaus im Spessart) is a 1958 West German musical comedy film directed by Kurt Hoffmann. It starred Liselotte Pulver and Carlos Thompson.

Synopsis

In the late years of the 18th century, Felix and Peter, two journeymen, are travelling across the Spessart hills to Würzburg. Scared of the bandits that plague these parts, especially after a brief encounter with them, the two are glad to find an inn in the middle of the forest. However, it turns out that they have wandered into a den of thieves. The owners are in league with the bandits, who this very night plan to abduct Franziska, the Comtesse von Sandau, who is travelling through the forest with a group including her fiancé, Baron Sperling. Their coach is waylaid by a trap and the bandits direct them to the nearby inn. The waitress warns the journeymen of impending danger and they pass on the warning to the nobles. During the night, the brigands arrive. To escape, the Comtesse switches places with Felix and, in a man's clothes, escapes with Peter. Felix (as Comtesse), Franziska's maid and the pastor are taken to the bandits' lair. The bandits send Baron Sperling on his way to carry the demand for 20,000 Gulden to Graf Sandau, Franziska's father.

L'ascension sociale du jeune Félix Krull. Employé d'hôtellerie à Paris le jour et joyeux noceur la nuit, il part ensuite en voyage sous l'identité et à la convenance du marquis de Venosta. La gent féminine, séduite par son charisme, contribuera à son élévation : Madame Houpflé, Zouzou, fille du professeur Kuckuck, l'un de ses compagnons de voyage, Zaza perdue ici et retrouvée là. Félix arrive toujours à s'extirper de situations insensées et semble se jouer de tous les obstacles, comme ces soupçons d'assassinat qui pèseront sur lui à un moment de sa vie.
