Casanova wider Willen

Morgan's third American film, which premiered in Vienna on 12 January 1932, was CASANOVA AGAINST HIS WILL. Die Stunde saw the choice of Vienna as the premiere location as proof that the American film industry was paying close attention to the Austrian market. The sensation of the film was that Buster Keaton spoke German – Paul Morgan had eagerly supported the ‘dutiful student’ in his studies.
