Plot: A sensual European countess arrives at a small American town where she quickly provokes moral outrage from the community. Upon arriving, even before she steps out of her taxi a district attorney informs her that loose women aren't welcome here. Donning a cigarette holder she explains with a seductive smile that she comes from Italy and asks for directions to her cousins château. The femme fatales exploits include drinking, smoking in public, enticing men, wearing extravagant garments and boasting a tattoo of a skull on her forearm.

Goof: Errors in geography After the Countess leaves Italy, a title card introduces us to the American Middle-West. The shot that follows is of a Eucalyptus tree dominating a residential area. While by that time Eucalyptus trees had been imported from Australia into California and were all over that state, they were unknown in the Midwest.

Quote:

Countess Elnora Natatorini : I am going far away - to the other side of the world - to forget...

Title card: The other side of the world...

Title card: Name any little town in the Middle West - and you're in Maple Valley.

Tagline: « Pola as the storm center of many hearts. A woman of fire-a woman of love- a woman of the world. A modern small town romance produced by the man who made "Are Parents People?" and "The Trouble With Wives." (Print Ad- Owosso Argus-Press, ((Owosso, Mich.)) 16 February 1926) »

Also known as: A Woman of the World ( United States ), Bezwstydna kobieta ( Poland ), En Verdensdame ( Denmark ), Femme du monde ( France - reissue title )
