What's left behind the scenes
- For a long time, the film was considered lost, but in 1968 a complete professional film copy was discovered in the archives of the French Cinémathèque.
- The director and screenwriter Tod Browning (1880-1962) based the plot on a story from his own circus past, about a man who pretended to be an acrobat to hide from the police.
- Joan Crawford (1905-1977) always called the film "Unknown" a turning point in her acting career. According to her, it was only while working with Lon Chaney (1883-1937) on this film that she understood the difference between simply being in front of the camera and acting for the camera. As she later claimed, it was Chaney and his incredible ability to concentrate who helped her realize this.
- Paul Desmuke (1876-1949) was born without arms, and in some scenes he acted as Lon Chaney's stunt double (particularly in scenes where he smoked or played the violin).
