Notes
The French play Zaza by Pierre François Samuel Berton and Charles Simon, as adapted in English by David Belasco, was also the basis for a 1915 Famous Players-Lasky production of the same name directed by Edwin S. Porter and starring Pauline Frederick (see AFI Catalog of Feature Films, 1911-20) and the 1939 Paramount production directed by George Cukor and starring Claudette Colbert (see AFI Catalog of Feature Films, 1931-40).
