The Persistent Lovers is a 1922 British silent drama film directed by Guy Newall and starring Newall, Ivy Duke and A. Bromley Davenport. It was an adaptation of a 1915 novel by A. Hamilton Gibbs.

Production

Half of the film's scenes were shot in Nice, France while Newall's Beaconsfield Film Studios was under construction. In order to maintain the appearance of an "English" film, Newall chose English-style "interiors" for filming locations. Most of the "exteriors" were photographed on the Norfolk Broads.

During one scene, Ivy Duke punches Lawford Davidson "in the ear" to admonish his misbehavior. Lawford Davidson later reported: "But the first punch I received was a very meek one, and I remonstrated 'That won't do, you must really hit me. After that there were about three rehearsals, the last was 'shot'—and by that time I received such an effective punch, that I had jaw-ache for three whole days."
