Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe second and final film in which Charles Bickford and Kay Johnson appeared together after Dynamite (1929). Passion Flower and Dynamite share several of the same crew members, and the respective films were each directed by a deMille brother.
- GoofsAlthough there is a five-year gap in the narrative, the ladies' clothes / hats are in the same late 1920s / early 1930s fashions throughout. This is particularly noticeable with Kay Francis.
- Quotes
Mrs. Harney: Of course it did seem kind of funny at first not having a man about the place. They're kinda handy in the daytime and they're sorta entertaining in the evening. But as far as I'm concerned, I'd just as soon have a good radio.
Featured review
Wilted
Cecil's brother, William DeMille only directed one film after this one. After seeing Passion Flower, it's a wonder they let him do that one. Extremely old fashioned material made with no verve. With the exception of some lame Zasu Pitts comedy, all the performances are wooden and trite, even the usually interesting Bickford and Francis. The only moment of interest is a technical where Bickford and Francis have a discussion on a very windy hillside and the sound appears to be recorded on site. It would difficult with modern microphones, much less what they had in 1930. But it's not enough to make anyone want to sit through this rubbish.
