Propaganda
Colleen Moore (Flaming Youth, Ella Cinders)— One of the highest paid, most in-demand actresses of the silent film era, Colleen Moore defied genre and kept herself one step ahead of the competition (and although Moore was the OG flapper, her longtime rival Clara Bow would become more famous for the image) as well as invested her earnings to ensure her financial security after she retired. She even wrote a book all about investing in the stock market! Moore also nurtured a passion for dollhouses throughout her life and helped design and curate The Colleen Moore Dollhouse, which has been a featured exhibit at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago since the early 1950s.
Lilian Harvey (Die Drei von der Tankstelle, Der Kongreß Tanzt, Glückskinder)— Lilian Harvey was one of the most popular German film stars of her time, appearing alongside frequent co-star Willy Fritsch like a European version of Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire. She had it all: she could act, she could dance, she could sing, she was hot, and she wasn't afraid to stick it to the Nazis. During the 1930s, she remained in contact with her Jewish friends and colleagues, which earned her the scrutiny of the Gestapo. When choreographer Jens Keith was arrested for having a sexual relationship with another man, Lilian posted his bail, allowing him to escape to France. She was eventually forced to flee Germany herself, and her film career never recovered. She is perhaps best known to American filmgoers from her brief mention in "Inglourious Basterds," when Joseph Goebbels insists that her name not be mentioned in his presence.
This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

Colleen is charming and funny, she was one of the starlets to popularize the iconic 1920s bob!
She's like the deep cut version of Louise Brooks, with majority silent films, and a large percentage of them lost-- BUT 'Why Be Good?' is such a fun movie and she wears really cute dresses and has all the best parts of Pre-Code leading lady fun!

Who’s who?
“We published a story a few months ago in which we showed that motion picture personalities are not always what they seem on the screen. What about them in their hometown then? What are their personal claims to distinction? We took a vote amongst our staff writers after the manner of collegiate papers with these interesting results.”
Highlights
Gloria Swanson - Most compelling personality
Pola Negri- Most brilliant woman
Greta Garbo - Girl with most brilliant future
Joan Crawford - Best woman dancer
Marion Davies - Most popular girl
Colleen Moore - Most unassuming girl

Colleen Moore- much, much Moore!
I was frankly charmed by this collage from a 1920s postcard (I’m guessing probably 1924-ish? If anyone can confirm a year let me know) that opened my eyes to the COLLEEN MOORE MULTIVERSE!!! What would the collective noun be for a group of Colleen Moores? A flapping?

Promotional portrait of Colleen Moore at the height of her fame, c. 1927, showing the famous Dutchboy bobbed haircut that she made famous, and which she apparently kept until the day she died.
