The Perfect Flapper

After finally getting around to watching (and greatly enjoying) the recently rediscovered "Why Be Good?" (1929), I thought I would post a couple of Evans photos I have of the star of that film, Colleen Moore.  Colleen is best known as the quintessential flapper and the very definition of the word 'cute', but before she did the Charleston and started wearing her trademark bangs, her film roles tended more towards the Mary Pickford type.  These two photos, taken only a year or so apart, already show her trending away from the Pickford curls and towards her now iconic look.
