Comment
A dancer (Marion Davies) in the 1890's falls for a man (Lawrence GRay) then discovers that his family is poor and not wealthy and is also engaged to another woman. Her dancing friends tell her how to catch a rich man but she wants love and marriage. This is an entertaining romantic drama with a good performance fron Marion Davies as an idealistic innocent dancer. The film is notable for the scene on the large swing that takes the viewer back and forth and also for the final sequence that was filmed in "two strip" Technicolor.
