Him and His Sister () is a Czech comedy film directed by Karel Lamač and Martin Frič. It was released in April 1931, and was ninth in the top-ten list of films shown in Prague cinemas that year. The film adapts a play by Bernhard Buchbinder. The film has a German version (Er und seine Schwester) released the same year, by the same director but with a partially different cast.
Cast Vlasta Burian as Jarda Brabec, a postman Anny Ondra as Anny Brabcová, his sister, Sabina's maid Otto Rubík as Bernard Olga Augustová as Sabina Veldenová, operetta soubrette Jan Sviták as Burda, Sabina's friend Theodor Pištěk as postmaster general
Reception The interpretation of Vlasta Burian and Anny Ondra in the film has been called "brilliant". The film was a commercial success, which, in 2013, Robert Rohál commented: "Lamač actually managed to do the seemingly impossible – to put a male and female clown in front of the camera."
