The play's first performance is uncertain, though a performance at Wilton House in 1603 (the house having been a focus for literary activity under Mary Sidney for much of the later 16th century) has been suggested as a possibility.

Oliver is the eldest son of Sir Rowland de Boys and the heir to his father's estates. In the beginning of the play he appears as a usurper like Duke Frederick. He ill-treats his younger brother Orlando, denies him good upbringing and education. He acts like a villain and even tries to kill Orlando by instigating the wrestler, Charles.
The film included Shakespeare's song "Tell Me Where is Fancy Bred", imported from The Merchant of Venice, but excluded the song "Under the Greenwood Tree" from As You Like It, which Walton set before the director cut it. The film was not a great success, and Walton's music was generally forgotten during the composer's lifetime.
