In his comments Mr. Arthur has given a full detail on what he believes to be this film, however it seems that he is confusing this entry with the 1927 silent CASANOVA produced by MGM. The Hungarian CASANOVA of 1918 is preserved in part at the Hungarian Film Institute in Budapest. Only a third of the film now remains. It is much sought as Bela Lugosi made one of his first screen appearances in this film. Sadly, his role does not seem to exist in the footage now known. But Lugosi's presence is confirmed by his own account and the discovery of several stills from this film among the late actor's personal effects.
