Quotes from

Guard: Her Majesty, Queen Margaret.


King Phillip III: This is treason!
Queen Margaret: You will never succeed. The people will rise against you!
Duke de Lorca: Shepherds may change, but sheep remain sheep.


Don Juan: [to Queen Margaret] Like most other men there has always been an imaginary woman in my life. I endow her with all the virtues, I clothe her in perfection. Naturally I search for her in vain. I thought she could never exist except in my mind. Now I find out she does.

Facts about

French visa # 8575.
Erich Wolfgang Korngold was assigned to score this film when shooting began in 1945 and even sketched some themes. When production was postponed until 1947 (due to Errol Flynn's illness and other problems) Max Steiner replaced Korngold because, by then, he had announced his retirement from motion pictures. In October 1947 he suffered a heart attack and, in spite of pleas from Leo F. Forbstein, Music Chief at Warners, Korngold refused to return to the studio.
Finnish censorship visa # 030459.
