Production
The film was shot in 1926, but was not released until 1928. Sally O'Neil was originally cast as Phyllis but was replaced by Marceline Day.
Joan Crawford, still an ingenue at the time, was considered for that same role, but she was deemed "unsuitable".[4] Castmember Willard Louis died a few months after filming wrapped, and his name was removed from the credits.[5]
