Based upon Sidney Howard's play "They Knew What They Wanted" the film was initially titled "Sunkissed."
The film is based on the Broadway production of "They Knew What They Wanted" by Sidney Howard opened on November 24, 1924 at the Garrick Theater, ran for 192 performances and won the Pulitzer Prize in Drama in 1925.
Because of legal complications, this title was never included in the MGM library of feature films released to television in 1956; a singular telecast took place on Turner Classic Movies 3 August 1994, as evidence of its survival, but it was never re-shown, most likely as a result of as yet unresolved legal issues.
