Filming was underway as of early Apr 1920, according to the 10 Apr 1920 Exhibitors Herald, which noted filmmaker and lead actress Nazimova (a.k.a. Alla Nazimova) had recently suffered a cold, halting production for at least a week. A month later, the 15 May 1920 Motion Picture News stated that a “Garden of Dreams” sequence was filmed that week on elaborate sets built at the Metro Pictures Corp. studio lot in Hollywood, CA. The 22 May 1920 issue of Camera announced that filming was “nearing completion,” and the 10 Jul 1920 Moving Picture World later reported that Nazimova, who, in addition to starring in the picture, served as titles writer, set decorator, and editor, was currently at work in the cutting room. In an interview published in the Sep 1920 Picture-Play, Nazimova indicated that she’d also dabbled in co-directing, continuity, and composing music, on unnamed projects. She earned a reported $2,000 daily salary, at least during production, and her personal secretary, Peggy Hagar, was a fixture on set.
       An 11 Oct 1920 theatrical release was initially scheduled, according to a listing in the 24 Jul 1920 Motion Picture News. However, the release date was pushed to 6 Dec 1920, as noted in various contemporary sources including the 21 Nov 1920 Wid’s Daily. A 5 Dec 1920 opening at New York City’s Capitol Theatre was advertised in two days earlier in Var. The picture was met with largely negative reviews, especially those published in the 5 Dec 1920 Wid’s Daily, 10 Dec 1920 Var, 11 Dec 1920 Motion Picture News, and Feb 1921 Photo-Play Journal.
