Man's Castle is a 1933 pre-Code American film directed by Frank Borzage and starring Spencer Tracy and Loretta Young.

Well-dressed Bill takes pity on Trina, a hungry young woman he meets in a city park and treats her to a dinner in a fancy restaurant.

When she longs for a new stove, he raises the down payment by serving a summons on Fay La Rue, the star of a show.

However, with the Production Code in full force, the Hays Office mandated nine minutes of cuts to win a seal of approval.

This resulted in a number of blatantly obvious jump cuts where racy dialogue has been removed, as well as the deletion of a shot of a nude Young (or more likely a stunt double) diving into the river.

Turner Classic Movies has a 75-minute version,[1] Mordaunt Hall wrote in The New York Times, "Even though Frank Borzage in his direction of Man's Castle, ... gives an occasional fleeting reminder of his successful silent film, Seventh Heaven the story is by no means as plausible or as poetic as that memorable old work.
