.... against the Age of Prohibition. Her image adorns postcards, her face stares from the covers of expensive coffee table books on the art of the Holly wood photographer. But her work remains remote or unknown to all. is embraced as an icon, and ignored as an artist. She is one of the most striking and original film actresses of time. She has something “modern” and timeless about her image and attitude that all attempts to acknowledge her as just another representative of the Roaring 20’s are doomed. The motion picture camera renders her dreamlike; her spirit injects dark blood and ivory flesh into and onto the shadowy image. Onscreen, she is, she lives a mercil ....

He failed the first time he tried to get admission and in the next year, 1907 he tried again and was very sure of success. To his surprise he failed again.
