The official title of this movie is "Douglas Fairbanks in Robin Hood."
The opening quote, "So fleet the works of men/ Back to their earth again/ Ancient and holy things/ Fade like a dream', is from 'Old and New: A Parable' by Charles Kingsley (1848).
This film was long thought to be lost, but was rediscovered in the 1960s.
