Typical german anecdotes
With Ludwig Manfred Lommel there were produced two humoresque films in the beginning of the 1930ies. I was not able to clear whether these film still exist or how successful these films have been, but an online search results in the following documents:
1. Entscheidung
der Film-Oberprüfstelle, Berlin vom 19.09.1930 bezüglich des Antrags der
Aufhebung des Verbots der Reklame zu dem Film "Kasernenzauber"
(Translation: Decision of the Main Film Inspection Office, Berlin, September 19,
1930, regarding the petition to cancel the ban of advertising the film
"Kasernenzauber")

pdf-documents, the viewer you'll
get here:
ad 1.: The poster of the film "Kasernenzauber" was forbidden for the text mentioned the term "roast pork" (Schweinebraten), which might be correlated to the depicted young girl and therefor has a crude effect on the viewer. This is the Decision of the Inspection Office regarding the petition the ban of advertising by the producer.
ad 2.: Roughly said the country government of Württembergt ook offence at two scenes resp. texts: morally und violating the reputation of the German people. Fortunately rational thinking defeats the german thoroughness and upcoming morality.
