This film is based on William Gillette's 1894 play Too Much Johnson and is the second film attempt at the play, the first having been a short in 1900.[4] Famously, Orson Welles made a short and unfinished film adaptation of the play in 1938, and he may have not known of this feature silent from 1919.
