Thrift Store Junkie

This is another superb and, unfortunately, obscure, silent comedy that fitly showcases the comedic adroitness of funny girl Marion Davies. Here, Davies is a delightful pest fighting for the affections of Nils Asther, a terrifically suave, Danish-born actor of the day, with stiff competition from Jetta Goudal, one of most extravagant and exotically alluring seductresses of the silent era. Highly recommended.
