Curiosidades

The Silver Cord is a 1933 American pre-Code drama film produced and released by RKO Radio Pictures, and directed by John Cromwell. It was based on the 1926 Broadway play The Silver Cord by Sidney Howard that starred Laura Hope Crews as an overly possessive mother.

Production

Director John Cromwell welcomed the opportunity to adapt The Silver Cord to the screen as he had directed Sidney Howard's play in its 1926 Broadway production. Film historian Kingsley Canham reports that Cromwell “felt that he could pull it off better than any other [film] director.”

Joel McCrea and Frances Dee first met during filming, and would be married soon after in October 1933. They remained married for 57 years, until McCrea's death.
