Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaElinor Glyn gave many confusing and sometimes contradictory explanations for what "It" meant, but she always said that "It" did not mean "sex appeal" necessarily and that anyone who said it did was vulgarizing her concept. Nonetheless, "It" became a euphemism for "sex appeal," which caused that pronoun to be entered into the American lexicon in the late 1920s.
- GoofsAs Waltham climbs onto the anchor, his shirt sleeve is intact. The scene cuts away to Monty and Adela in the rowboat for a brief moment; however, in the next scene, Waltham's sleeve is completely torn.
- Quotes
Monty Montgomery: I feel so low, old chap, that I could get on stilts and walk under a daschund.

Featured review
Nothing earth shattering here, no high art, just pure entertainment! A bit like today's light romantic comedies, but a tad better in a lot of instances! The real star here is Clara Bow who could after all really act and wasn't just another pretty face, although she was that and more! It's not difficult to see why she became a popular personality with her vivacity, energy and contagious charm! The girl just exuded fun! As Antonio Moreno said in the movie, "She has plenty in reserve!" There are some cute lines in the movie, like when Monty says, " I feel so low I'd have to walk on stilts under a dachshund." William Austin is an entertaining secondary character.
The print I saw was in good shape and I enjoyed the high angle shots of the department store at the beginning of the movie with the camera panning down to the street, the amusement park scenes and the scenes on the yacht. Makes me want to see Clara in a serious drama too! Worth watching for Clara to see what It was all about! I don't think It has changed that much even in the present day!
