Trivia
The love scene was entirely lit by kerosene lamps. By the end of each take, the small room was so filled with smoke that it was hard to see.
Quotes
woman in audience:
It's her. I know it's her! She wants to tell us something.
Goofs
Near the end, Chief Inspector Uhl is in Prince Leopold's office. When the two argue, the boom mic is visible, going from one character to the other, in the reflection on the brass table lamp.
