This set piece was from a famous one in the original DON JUAN, which featured Barrymore's duel with sword and rapier, climaxed by a leap, knife in teeth, thirty feet down the stairway bearing the villain down to his death.
Among the additions to the original DON JUAN, of course, is the spoken word, penned by George Oppenheimer (A DAY AT THE RACES, additional dialogue), assisted by the reliable script doctor Harry Kurnitz (THE INSPECTOR GENERAL, 1949).
THE ADVENTURES OF DON JUAN was not as winning at the box office as Flynn's earlier Period Films, and his performance was attacked less for its qualities than for his scandal-stalked life.

 Adventures of Don Juan - Music from the Movies
Some tantalising fragments of the original soundtrack for Don Juan were released on LP in the 1970s, in celebration of 50 years of Warner's film music.
Although Steiner was to a degree influenced by Korngold in fashioning his score for Don Juan he was clearly not overawed by his compatriot.
Besides the themes for Juan and the Queen, the other main motif is a delightful serenade which Steiner employs in a variety of guises, to accompany the amorous adventurer's seductions, most of which are rudely interrupted.

 Amazon.com: Adventures of Don Juan: Video: Vincent Sherman,Errol Flynn,Viveca Lindfors,Robert Douglas,Alan Hale,Romney ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
THE ADVENTURES OF DON JUAN was intended as something of a 'comeback' film for Warner Bros. resident 'bad boy', combining the heroic elements of 'ROBIN HOOD' and 'THE SEA HAWK' with Flynn's well-established (by 1948) reputation as a hell-raising womanizer.
It was not an easy film to make; despite Flynn's initial attempts to be punctual and a cooperative, he eventually 'fell off the wagon', and his carousing and frequent disappearances stretched the filming out by months, forcing frequent reshooting.
Assigned as a fencing master at the Academy, the legendary lover draws the ire of the Queen by stating his feelings for her, then is manipulated into another disastrous diplomatic blunder, involving, of course, another woman.
