Wissenswertes
At one point Lancelot takes a heart out of the leg of his pants. This is an allusion to the German expression 'Das Herz ist mir in die Hose gerutscht' (my heart slid into my pants) which is equivalent to 'to have one's heart in one's boots'.

Patzer
Lancelot shouts his alarm to a monk that he is being pursued by "40 women". However, about 20 women are seen on screen.

He says this because the butler earlier had announced "Forty women at the door!" It's an estimate as it's doubtful the butler made an individual count. Also, there is no "requirement" that all referenced individuals must appear on screen.

Zitate
Baron von Chanterelle: [on Lancelot's wedding night] Do you need any more pieces of advice?
Lancelot: No thanks, I have an instruction manual.

Oh, You Beautiful Doll

People speak of the Lubitsch Touch first showing up in THE OYSTER PRINCESS, but that movie always struck me me as a a good romantic comedy, dimmed by changes in fashion, creaking a bit in age.

But this movie is the real thing: a silly story told with much flair and constant surprises. It begins with Lubitsch showing you a model of the set, like Penn and Teller showing you how they do the cup-and-ball trick, followed by a show that dazzles you: pantomime horses, venal monks and a little bit of E.T.A. Hoffman all fall under the thrall of Lubitsch and all of them, and the audience too, end up with smiles on their faces.

This movie is too good to more than hint at its wonders. If you have never seen a silent feature, see this one.
