The Burgomeister is a 1935 Australian film directed by Harry Southwell based on the 1867 play Le juif polonais (aka The Bells) by Erckmann-Chatrian, adapted into English in 1871 by Leopold Lewis, previously filmed a number of times. The Burgomeister is considered a 'substantially lost' film, with only one sequence surviving.[2][3]
Southwell had performed the play in Europe, and had previously filmed it in Belgium (1925) as Le juif polonais (The Bells).[4] This silent film version was shown in Australia in 1928.[5][6]
