Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaGreta Garbo was extremely protective of Erich von Stroheim during filming. He was suffering from depression and poor health, and on some occasions, she covered for him by claiming to be sick.
- GoofsThe quick change of Greta Garbo's hair style is very odd: It may have been possible for her character to darken her blonde hair within a week but impossible to grow it to this length. There is no suggestion that her character Zara wears a wig in the beginning of the film.

Featured review
Ridiculous botch of a script
Pirandello's play is brilliant, but this script, and story, bears only a passing resemblance.
Lena is NOT a servant, she is the woman's aunt, who brought her up. The woman does NOT hang around in the play, she leaves them all with the mad woman, who, in my opinion, DOES turn out to be the long-lost Maria.
Why change the names? They were perfectly suitable for the screen.
This was a case of scriptwriting for its own sake, not a screen adaptation.
Performances were typical of all really, but the faithless destruction of the original material lets this down terribly.
