Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

One of several early sound films grappling with WWI's psychological wreckage before the Hays Code sanitized everything.

Trivia

E.A. Dupont fled Germany for Britain in 1933; this pre-echo of Jewish persecution feels eerily prophetic in retrospect.
