Release
Despite starring several well-known actors, including Gilbert Emery of The Sentimental Bloke (1919), the film only received a limited release. Darling invested £400 of his own money to make the movie and lost it all, causing him to complain at the 1927 Royal Commission into the Australian Film Industry about unfair exhibition practices in Australia. Darling later made Daughter of the East (1924) with Dorothy Hawtree, star of this film.
