* ScrewedByTheNetwork: The film was dumped with almost no advertising by MGM on its opening day, instead leaving those duties to William Randolph Hearst's newspapers. The film was poorly received and was an instantaneous box office failure. Historians blame MGM's [[ExecutiveMeddling poor micromanagement]] and their falling out with Stroheim on the film's poor performance, as they had removed at least seven hours of crucial footage from the film (the original cut was '''nine hours long''') and trimmed it to two hours, leaving the film a complete mess and numerous plot holes unresolved in the process. Since the film is [[VindicatedByHistory held in a higher regard today]] than in any point in history (thanks, in no small part, to Turner Classic Movies' four hour restoration of the film that tries to be as faithful to the original cut as possible with what little surviving footage they had), this is perhaps the most tragic example of being a film being Screwed by the Studio.
