Intriguing Double Identity Show Biz Story Fails to Sustain Interest

[lchadbou-326-26592 · 5/10 · 22 February 2021]

Lillian Bond has a dual role in this poverty row (Progressive) show biz story set in a film studio, as a "high hat" actress who dies in a car crash and as her stunt double hired by the mogul played by Alexander Carr and asked later to replace her both on the sound stage and in real life.Meanwhile her mother played by Beryl Mercer works in the studio scrubbing the floors. The director William O'Connor mostly known for assisting on westerns fails to maintain interest as the bigamy complucation develops, with his overly talky treatment.
