Trivia | The original intention had been to produce a sound version of Honoré de Balzac's 1831 short story, which had been filmed in 1910 and 1923, to mark the centenary of the writer's death. However, delays in obtaining backing for the film meant the anniversary was missed and the film became based on actual events that were unconnected with the Balzac story.See more » |
