Liliane

In 2004, when Michael Mashon, a curator of the motion picture division at the Library of Congress, received a request for a print of this film, he discovered two negatives of the film: the original camera negative and a "duplicate negative" that was longer. The duplicate negative was the pre-release (uncensored) version of the film that was submitted to the New York State censorship board in 1933 for approval. The uncensored version received its public premiere at the London Film Festival in November 2004, more than 70 years after it was made. The existence of these negatives allows pristine quality prints to be made as compared to other surviving films of that era.

When Lily reads from Nietzsche's book, Thoughts Out Of Season, the page that's highlighted repeats the same paragraph above, and again below, the highlighted lines.

The original release had to be cut by four minutes to pass inspection by the New York Board of Censors. The cuts were mostly very minor, but the most notable were the scene where Lily admits that she began working as a prostitute when she was fourteen and the scene in the boxcar with the yardman, the closeup of the hand turning out the light. These scenes were cut before the film's release in 1933 and were not seen publicly until 2004.
