Footlights
1921, English. Directed by John S. Robertson.
A wonder drama set against the fascinating environment of the theater- gorgeous in the display of gowns- human in its heart appeal- genuine in its naturalness.
Exotic Russian actress Lisa Parsinova tires of her glamorous life on the New York stage and returns, under her actual identity as Lizzie Parsons, to her small New England hometown. But she is pursued by a young man who is in love with the famed Russian alter ego.
