Leonard. In it, things become complicated when an irresistibly beautiful and charming woman used as bait by a coterie of swindlers to lure rich men into compromising situations in which their fortunes can be stolen falls in love with one of her marks. While the film has no audible dialog, it was released with a synchronized musical score with singing and sound effects using both the sound-on-disc and sound-on-film process. The film is based upon the story "Little Angel" by Leroy Scott and is Norma Shearer's last silent film. Although the film was released with added dialogue scenes, Shearer had no lines. The film's copyright was renewed, so it did not enter the public domain until January 1, 2024. ## Credits - **Director:** [Robert Z.
