Ella Cinders - 1926 - 6/10
Ella, the browbeaten, mistreated stepdaughter enters a photo beauty pageant.
Prize? Paid trip to and screen test in Hollywood!
Will she win? Will she go? Does stardom await?
Pleasing adaptation of a long running comic strip is an excellent showcase for Colleen Moore.
The premise is not too far-fetched, either.
(In 1921, Clara Bow, sixteen, entered the Fame & Fortune contest, and won!)
Fun sequence of her pretending to be a child while babysitting.
Entertaining comedy, although the ending left me a little flat.
