Production and Release Date
The precise date that the film was shot is not recorded. It had long been thought to have been made in 1917, partially due to comments Stan made about it during an interview in 1957. But it had also been dated to 1918 and 1919. However, on the basis of an examination of the dates that Stan was available for filming, and the appearance of a 1920 car license plate in one shot of the complete film, the most likely date filming took place is in the latter part of 1920 and into early 1921. The film was released for distribution in late 1921 by Reelcraft.
The film's production cost was thought to have been about $3000.

“The heart of man ever finds a constant succession of passions, so that the destroying and pulling down of one proves generally to be nothing else but the production and the setting up of another.”

“The shallow consider liberty a release from all law, from every constraint. The wise man sees in it, on the contrary, the potent Law of Laws.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
