Storyline

After falling miserably on the set of their first 'talkie' Mary Pickford (America's sweetheart) and Louise Brooks (the vamp) vow never to another film again. Out of work and past their prime, they become roommates in Brooklyn. Stuck in her role as America's sweetheart, and both of them still living as though in a silent film, Mary's resentment of Louise's antics goes politely unspoken until, threatened with the loss of her one true love, Mary must face her fears and expose the rusty, unused voice inside her if she is ever to get what she wants.
