'Diary of a Lost Woman' (German: 'Das Tagebuch einer Verlorenen') is a 1918 German silent drama film directed by Richard Oswald and starring Erna Morena, Reinhold Schnzel, and Werner Krauss. The rising star Conrad Veidt also appeared. It is now considered a lost film.Soister p.38 It was remade at the end of the silent era as 'Diary of a Lost Girl' by Georg Wilhelm Pabst.
Due to the film's over theme of prostitution it had major censorship issues which delayed its release for several months and led to a number of cuts.Kreimeier p.44
The film's sets were designed by the art director August Rinaldi.
