She still had two more films left on her United Artists contract. In late 1930, Samuel Goldwyn announced he had bought the film rights to Zoë Akins' comedy play "The Greeks Had a Word for It" for her. She reportedly did some stage rehearsals for it in New York, but within a few months, she asked to be released from her contract. She never again appeared on screen. (Goldwyn eventually made the film version of "The Greeks Had a Word for It" under the title "The Greeks Had a Word for Them" in 1932.)
