Summary
Two of the most promising young people in motion pictures combine their efforts to make the Grace Flandrau novel, 'Being Respectable.' They are Phil Rosen, the young director who came into the limelight with success of 'Abraham Lincoln,' and Dorothy Farnum, one of the cleverest scenarioists in the game, who numbers 'Beau Brummel' among her many artistic achievements. It is a Warner Brothers Classic of the Screen and is being screened for the last time at the World Theatre today.
