Two things distinguish this film from Chaplin's other work.
The most obvious is that he does not appear in the film, at least not in his traditional role of the Tramp.
He has a brief cameo as a porter in a train station.
This role is inconspicuous and not credited  (he even precedes the film with a title card which explains that he does not appear).
Most people seeing the film will not notice that it is actually Chaplin.
The other major difference between this and most of Chaplin's other work is that the film is a serious drama.

Edna Purviance plays the lead as Marie St. Clair.
One of Chaplin's reasons for producing the film was to help Purviance gain recognition as an actress without Chaplin at her side.
Others were because he wanted to stay behind the camera and to make his first real drama.
Despite his effort, Purviance did not achieve the level of success that she had in films with Chaplin's Tramp at her side.
However, the film did help Adolphe Menjou gain some recognition.

The film was inspired by Chaplin's brief 1922 romance with Peggy Hopkins Joyce, whose stories of her romantic adventures in Europe provided the framework of the screenplay.

The exterior scenes were shot outside the Ansonia Apartments on W. 6th Street and Lake Street, Los Angeles, California.
