Production
Wright was heavily involved in the production of the film; he preferred to shoot the film as more of a traditional play rather than cutting in and using close-ups of the actors.[3] He even cast a neighbor, Phoenix resident Cathrine Curtis, as his leading lady. The film was produced by the Clune Film Company over the course of several months spanning from 1917 to 1918, and was shot in California and the Ozark Mountains of Missouri.[4][5]
