Munchhausen (Baky); anyone else seen this film?

IMHO, it actually works somewhat better than The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, although Terry Gilliam's film, which was directly inspired by this version, gets off to a more rousing start in my estimation. The 1943 UFA release actually has several interesting twists not contemplated in the latter version with much more of a dark fantasy flavor (i.e., w/o the unfortunate campiness of Robin Williams over-the-top man in the moon performance).
