The film was, according to contemporary sources, partially shot ’in the Truckee district’ in California.

Cast

Initially, The Silent Lie was rejected in its entirety by the Kansas Board of Review, but upon review, it passed with several cuts. The scenes shortened were of a dance hall, gambling, and the scenes removed completely were of spitting, changing money, a struggle, and an intertitle saying "I paid you once."
