Trivia:
The monument to this film was erected and dedicated near the site on which this film was made at the Forbidden City Restaurant. The 2.8 ton monument was stolen overnight, under mysterious circumstances in April 2005, but was found almost one year later near a garbage bin not far from where the monument stood on Vine Street in Hollywood. Because of this vandalism and questionable theft of the monument, and its controversy that the first movie in Hollywood was of a Latino based storyline, the company felt this was discriminatory to the Latino community, and disassociated its business with the district of Hollywood, and moved its corporate headquarters to downtown Los Angeles. Today Biograph's main corporate headquarters are in Beverly Hills, CA.See more »

This was the first actual movie made in Hollywood. This precedes "The Squaw Man" made by Cecil B. DeMille by over 3 years. This historic movie is in the process of restoration by us, the company that made it (The American Mutoscope and Biograph Company).
