Wissenswertes
When the film opened at the Embassy Theatre in New York City 28 November 1928, it was still silent and was accompanied by a live orchestral accompaniment. In December 1928 a musical score was recorded, sound-on-disc, and this version was distributed by MGM in 1929.

Viking women neither shaved their underarms nor wore the strapless bustiers.

Zitate
Title Card: A thousand years ago, long before any white man set foot on the American shore, Viking sea rovers sailed out of the north and down the waterways of the world. These were men of might, who laughed in the teeth of the tempest, and leaped into battle with a song. Plundering - ravaging - they raided the coast of Europe - until the whole world trembled at the very name - THE VIKING.

Crazy Credits
The title card bills the three stars in the order Pauline Starke [top billing], Donald Crisp [second billing], and Le Roy Mason [third billing]. But the opening credits end with "The Players" listed in the order: first "Leif Erickson ... Donald Crisp," second "Helga . . . Pauline Starke, third "Alwin . . . Le Roy Mason," etc. The characters appear on screen in the order Alwin, Helga, and Leif Erickson.

Excerpts incorporated into the score

A handsomely staged silent epic created to showcase the new 2-strip Technicolor process. All the male leads fall for Viking maiden Helga (Pauline Starke, looking exceedingly fetching in her Viking outfits), but there's little doubt about which of them will claim her heart. Worth catching for the sight of a young Donald Crisp looking like a drummer in some early 1970s prog rock band.
