His Excellency (1944 film)

His Excellency (Swedish: Excellensen) is a 1944 Swedish drama film directed by Hasse Ekman and starring Lars Hanson, Gunnar Sjöberg and Elsie Albiin.

The film's sets were designed by the art director Arne Åkermark.

It was part of a growing number of Swedish films more overtly critical of German war policy, and the only one of them to openly identify the occupiers as Germans and set it in a real country.
