In a small provincial town there is a hotel run by one of those eccentric cooks of long ago who made generous meals that have nothing in common with the extravagant restaurateurs of nowadays and their meagre menus. The manager is named after Alexander the Great and in his restaurant the town bourgeoisie meet and discuss various issues, especially matters of the heart. Morals are part of the conversations and prove to be complicated issues even for strict and serious Nordics.

Mauritz Stiller's Alexander den Store [Alexander the Great] (1917) is not a hysterically funny comedy, but it does amuse itself at the snobbery of the modern hotel business. Apart from the grotesque teeth of the ladies involved the humor is based more on the down-to-earth nature of the people then set-up gags and things like that. Probable not the best way to make a good silent comedy, but it doesn't shame itself.
