 In the original version of this film, during the scene in which Wallace Beery  tries to rape Fay Wray and she shoots him in the arm, Beery horsewhips her  after she begins laughing hysterically at him. The whipping is shown only by  their shadows on the wall. After the Production Code went into effect, this  scene was edited, and it is the edited version that is now on video, and  which turns up on television. As the scene is played now, we merely see Wray  shoot Beery and then Villas men bursting in as she begins laughing.
