Did You Know?
| Trivia | Margarita Fischer, past 40, came out of a two-year retirement, at the request of her husband, director Harry S. Pollard, to play the role of Eliza, but despite heavy makeup and soft-focus photography, could no longer disguise the passing of time, and never made another film. Ironically, she was only two years younger than Eulalie Jensen, the actress who played her mother. See more » |
