'When Four Do the Same' (German: 'Wenn vier dasselbe tun') is a 1917 German silent comedy drama film directed by Ernst Lubitsch and starring Ossi Oswalda, Emil Jannings and Margarete Kupfer. Lubitsch himself plays a book shop employee who falls in love with Jannings' daughter. The film was a key transitional work in Lubitsch's career, as he began to produce films with greater depth than his early light comedies.Eyman p.50-51

It premired in Berlin on 16 November 1917 at the Union-Theatre am Nollendorfplatz and at the UT Kufrstendamm (Filmbhne Wien).[http://www.cinegraph.de/Festival/04/Filme/Wenn vier dasselbe tun.html "Wenn vier dasselbe tun (1917)"]. cinegraph.de. Retrieved 8 January 2017.
