Ulmer.[2] The screenplay is based on the French play Les Avariés (1901) by Eugène Brieux.[3] The film was shot at General Service Studios, Hollywood for the Canadian Social Health Council and premiered in Toronto.[4] Damaged Lives was initially released in Canada and a few cities in the United States but screenings were blocked by censors in most American towns. In 1937, the film was re-released as The Shocking Truth with a 29-minute supplementary lecture on VD added onto the end of the film to satisfy censors. Most current video releases do not include this extra material.[5]Along with the controversial subject matter, the film contains one of the earliest filmed nude scenes in a sequence where a group of fun-loving women strip naked and go skinny dipping. Plot summaryThe film involves an extramarital encounter that leads the wife of the main character into killing herself and her husband. A boss insists that a young executive, with an important job and a long term girlfriend, go out with him to a party and while out at the party he sleeps with a young wealthy woman, Elise (Charlotte Merriam), and contracts a dangerous venereal disease from her. The girlfriend is so upset that she commits suicide. Differences from play{{Empty section|date=February 2010}}Cast{{Cast listing|
