Comment
A waitress (Gloria Swanson) who dreams of being an actress is in love with the pancake flipper (Lawernce Gray) in the restaurant who is more interested in actresses than her. So she takes an acting correspondence course and fights her rival (Gertrude Astor) an actress in a trouring troupe. Gloria Swanson gives a wonderful comic performance that is a mixture of physical comedy and facial expressions and the woman in love wo keeps being put down and falling over. The opening and closing scenes are filmed in colour.
