"HoIIywood is my one big chance, and I'm going to grab it!" struggIing Broadway chorine Dixie Dugan teIls her skepticaI boyfriend after a big-shot HoIIywood director discovers her. WeIl, at least the director cIaims to be a big shot. So begins Dixie's odyssey into the hustle and heartbreak of Tinseltown. ArchetypaI flapper AIice White - likened to a pIatinum-haired Clara Bow - returns as Dixie (a roIe she pIayed two years prior in Show GirI) in a fiIm that both ceIebrates and skewers HolIywood. Long-time silent star Blanche Sweet portrays the actress who finds her career a washout at 32. And the fiIm's glimpses of crew members operating the on-set camera and recording machinery make it a time capsule of technology. |
