Content:  Scaramouche was an elaborate and unwieldy production that suffered from delays and cost overruns. Ingram had secured the rights to Sabatini's novel in September 1922, and worked on the project for seven months before the cameras rolled. Extensive outdoor sets, representing 18th-century Paris, were built both on the Metro lot and at a separate site in the San Fernando Valley, and 1,500 extras were used. An experimental sequence was shot in Technicolor, with the Technicolor company picking up tab; the sequence proved unsatisfactory and was ultimately discarded.

The book also depicts his transformation from cynic to idealist. The three-part novel opens with the memorable line: "He was born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad."
