This was the film which opened the famous Pantages Theatre at Hollywood and Vine.
Although included among the more than 700 features in the original 1956 MGM television package, this one's age and obscurity destined it for only a handful of presentations, in less predominant markets, among them in Cleveland OH Friday 18 April 1958 on KYW (Channel 3) , in Honolulu 18 May 1958 on KHVH (Channel 13) and in Norfolk VA 22 July 1958 on WTAR (Channel 3). Today's vintage film enthusiasts have it much better, with an occasional welcome showing on Turner Classic Movies, and its original finale now restored in 2-strip Technicolor.
The 2-strip Technicolor finale, which runs 608 feet, or about 7 minutes, includes rare color footage of Marion Davies.
Newsreel footage survives that shows Marion Davies filming the "Tell Me, Pretty Maiden" number with guests on the set Louis B. Mayer, Cecil B. DeMille, Will H. Hays, Calvin Coolidge, and Mary Pickford in attendance. Miss Davies also greets and chats with the guests.
