Trivia

Prior to editing, the kiss at the end of the tango scene between Rudolph Valentino and Beatrice Dominguez took up 75 feet of film. The scene wasn't in the Vicente Blasco Ibáñez novel, but was added by Rex Ingram to show off Valentino's dancing skills. See more »

Quotes

Dona Luisa: Is it not enough to lead my son into wild ways without teaching my daughter the tango?
Madriaga: Will you have the boy grow up like those glass-eyed, carrot-topped sharks of your sister's?
