The Adventures of Prince Florisel (original title Priklyucheniya printsa Florizelya) is a 1981 Soviet made for TV adventure movie directed by Yevgeni Tatarsky and based on stories "The Suicide Club" and "The Rajah's Diamond" by Robert Louis Stevenson.

In 1999 the movie was re-released under the title Klub samoubiyts, ili Priklyucheniya titulovannoy osoby (The Suicide Club, or The Adventures of the Noble).
