Although this title was among more than 700 Warner Bros. productions sold to Associated Artists in 1956 for re-release and/or television broadcast, this one, along with Moby Dick il mostro bianco (1930) and Svengali (1931) remained in litigation until April 1959 because of their involvement with the estate of the late John Barrymore who had a financial interest in them when they were originally produced; as a result, this film's earliest documented telecast took place in San Diego 19 August 1959 on KFMB (Channel 8), after which time, it was only rarely taken off the shelf; it was also aired Wednesday 7 February 1962 on CBET (Channel 9) which served the Windsor, Ontario/Detroit, Michigan area, for example. In more recent years, it's been in the Turner Network Television Library and enjoys occasional presentations on Turner Classic Movies.
