Reception
Writing for The Spectator, Graham Greene made light of the film's use of excerpts from La Bohème and described Moore's acting as "undistinguished", suggesting that the success of the film is due in large part to Carrillo's performance.
The film grossed $100,019 in its opening week at Radio City Music Hall. It was the highest grossing film in the United States in July 1935.
It was the tenth most popular film at the British box office in 1935–36.
