Cast



Production



In late 1925 during filming of 'The Girl from Montmartre', as a result of her health issues La Marr collapsed on the film set and later went into a coma. The studio completed the film without her, and it was released the next year on January 31, 1926, which was one day after she died. Two weeks later, First National decided to remove her name from the title card of the film and its advertising, so that the film was promoted as "First National presents 'The Girl from Montmartre' with Lewis Stone."

Preservation



Lost Film Files mistakenly has 'The Girl from Montmartre' listed as a lost film.[http://www.silentsaregolden.com/arnefirstnational.html 'The Girl from Montmartre' at Lost Film Files: 'Lost First National films - 1926'] The online Library of Congress / FIAF database lists a print of the film located in the George Eastman House Motion Picture Collection and an excerpt of one reel at UCLA Film and Television Archive.[https://memory.loc.gov/diglib/ihas/loc.mbrs.sfdb.1462/default.html The Library of Congress American Silent Feature Film Survival Catalog: 'The Girl from Montmartre']
