		Colleen was not as overtly sexy as Clara Bow, Alice White or Louise Brooks, but one look at her and you know you'd have a great time with her.
		Colleen was the eighth star to put her handprints in cement at the Chinese Theatre, preceeded only by Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford, Norma Talmadge, Norma Shearer, Harold Lloyd, William S. Hart and Tom Mix (and Toby!).
		Colleen states in her autobiography that she liked Clara while they worked on Painted People, and the version of events she recounts is that Clara demanded Colleen's part, disliking her own role of haughty rich girl, but she wasn't the established star and Clara's own producer took her off the picture.

	Colleen Moore in The Silent Collection by Tammy Stone (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		There isn’t too much information about Colleen Moore out there today, and it doesn’t help matters that most of her films, once so popular, are either irretrievably lost to history or not deemed (as of yet) worthy of reissue.
		In her heyday, Colleen – not the most beautiful, perhaps not even the most distinctive – was nevertheless a force to be reckoned with, both at the box office and in terms of her comedic talent.
		Colleen was drawn to movies at an early age – by the time she was a little girl, the cinema was already around a decade old – and she kept a scrapbook of her favourite actresses, among them the already-huge star, Mary Pickford.

		Moore has a sustained scene on a revolving fashion platform where the owner attempts frantically to costume her as the platform revolves round and round.
		Moore starts off as a receptionist at a cement yard and leaves to become the phone operator at a swank Manhattan hotel, and most of her scenes take place in the hotel.

		Between her Dutch bobbed hair, the raised hemlines of her costumes, and the cocktail-sipping ways of her character, she had introduced moviegoers to the "flapper," a model of emancipated womanhood that women across the country were soon imitating.
		Many of her subsequent films such as The Perfect Flapper and We Moderns popularized the flapper persona yet further, and it has been said that after Moore American women were never the same again.

		The casting of 20s flapper Colleen Moore to play Hester seems to be something of a mistake to my eyes, as I never really saw her as the Hester Prynne I have known fairly well for a number of years now.
		She is on trial for having the child out of wedlock and because she refuses to name the father of her baby, for her humiliation and punishment she must wear the scarlet letter "A" over her bosom for the rest of her natural life.
		Colleen, more famous as a silent film star (Lilac Time, Ella Cinders), does the best she can with this dried out piece of toast of a movie.

		With her trademark short haircut and a pixie's high energy, Moore was a signature star of her era, summing up an entire generation of ambitious, smart and fun-loving flappers in films including "Ella Cinders" (1926), "Irene" (1926) and "Orchids and Ermine" (1928).
		Moore managed the transition to sound and retained her popularity for several years, though by the mid-30s her screen career had waned considerably, and two very interesting if intensely dramatic roles in "The Power and the Glory" (1933) and "The Scarlet Letter" (1934) did not successfully negotiate a change in image for her.
		Until she died Moore remained an alert and entertaining raconteur of the era she thrived in.
