Wallace Beery and Louise Brooks worked together the following year in Beggars of Life, a well-received early sound film. Hatton also sometimes appeared paired in films with Beery's brother Noah Beery.

Plot
Wally and Ray are cousins intent upon getting the fortune of their Scots grandad, an aviation nut. They become mixed-up with the U. S. flying corps and are wafted over the enemy lines in a runaway balloon. Through misunderstanding they are honored as heroes of the enemy forces, and sent back to the U.S. lines to spy. Here they are captured and almost shot, but everything ends happily.[1]
