In her later years, Mary Pickford stated that working on the film was the worst experience of her life, although she also acknowledged that Douglas Fairbanks's performance was one of his best.

Douglas Fairbanks' and Mary Pickford's marriage had deteriorated so badly by the time they made this film that many onlookers said that Fairbanks exaggerated Petruchio's harsh treatment towards Katharine in order to take out his own frustrations on Pickford.

The film premiered only days before the great Wall Street stock market crash of 1929.

For many years it was believed that one of the credits read "Additional Dialogue by Sam Taylor", but the actual credit reads "Adapted and Directed by Sam Taylor".

This version of the play was not based on Shakespeare's play directly but Richard Garrick's adaptation often produced under the title "Katherine and Petruchio," in which only about one-third of the original text was used.
