MGM had become aware by April that the film was not going to be able to recoup its cost and started writing off the losses. Ultimately the movie earned $1,600,000 in the US and Canada and $2,500,000 overseas, incurring an overall loss of $5,853,000.
This, along with the failure of Mutiny on the Bounty and The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm, lead the MGM president to resign.
