Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Released months before the Hays Code clamped down, this is pure pre-Code energy—adults having adult problems with minimal moralizing.

Trivia

Director A.F. Erickson was a former polo player himself, which explains the authentic match footage and probably why the horses out-act everyone.
