 Settling in America, Lubitsch established his reputation for sophisticated comedy with such stylish films as "The Marriage Circle" (1924), "Lady Windermere's Fan" (1925), and "So This Is Paris" (1926).But his films were only marginally profitable for Warner Brothers, and Lubitsch's contract was eventually dissolved by mutual consent, with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Paramount buying out the remainder.His first film for MGM, "The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg" (1927), was well regarded, but lost money.
