Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaElinor Glyn gave many confusing and sometimes contradictory explanations for what "It" meant, but she always said that "It" did not mean "sex appeal" necessarily and that anyone who said it did was vulgarizing her concept. Nonetheless, "It" became a euphemism for "sex appeal," which caused that pronoun to be entered into the American lexicon in the late 1920s.
- GoofsAs Waltham climbs onto the anchor, his shirt sleeve is intact. The scene cuts away to Monty and Adela in the rowboat for a brief moment; however, in the next scene, Waltham's sleeve is completely torn.
- Quotes
Monty Montgomery: I feel so low, old chap, that I could get on stilts and walk under a daschund.

Featured review
I decided I'd watch a little bit of this film on the computer. Knowing me I usually get distracted and stop watching but this film was so very different. My first silent film, and already a favourite. I could literally not stop watching Clara Bow, she was absolutely fascinating. I'd read David Stenn's wonderful biography on her so it was great to see her finally acting. When she's on screen you block out everything else and her acting ability wonderful - she can cry at the drop of a hat! So, instead of getting distracted I watched this movie the whole way through and enjoyed every moment of it... but my favourite parts were definitely with Clara. In fact, you could say I wasn't really interested in anyone else! This movie is HER movie. It's fun, flirty and just a great movie. I recommend it for anyone who loves silent movies, Clara Bow, or flirtatious movies pushing the limit. Age wise, I think I can recommend it for about 15 onwards - I'm 14 and I really enjoyed it - but not all teenagers will appreciate the film. Which is a pity, because it's wonderful!
