Lady of the Night

Joan Crawford is the uncredited non-nude body double for Norma Shearer. Norma plays two roles in the film. Whenever both characters are in the same scene, Crawford plays the role that has her backside to the camera.

After Molly announces to David (and Chunky) that she and Chunky are getting married, David wishes them well and leaves. Chunky then goes to Molly and gives her a loving hug, whereupon she says, "Don't be previous!" and knocks him over a chair onto his back on the floor, and then she leaves. As the camera cuts back from Molly leaving to Chunky on the floor, he is now behind the table, still on his back but with his feet up in the air against the window, and the dog is licking his face.

In 2006, Turner Entertainment Company copyrighted a 61-minute version with an original piano score composed by Jon Mirsalis. It was broadcast on Turner Classic Movies (TCM) in 2006, and distributed by Warner Bros. Television.
