In 1923, Colleen Moore propelled the flapper to fame, in the now lost film Flaming Youth. Here she is in all her AI enhanced glory getting primped for a party. The iconic flapper look with bob hairstyle, bangs and lipstick! The film was a box office smash, but was heavily criticized by a very conservative press. Subsequently the movie was censored in many states. However even the New York Times, which also panned the movie, praised Moore’s performance. “Colleen Moore gives a vivid performance of the jazz-devoted novice. She lives the part of a pert young thing, whose hair is cut with a bang on the forehead, whose eyes are full of mischief and whose arms are long and slender.“ The film was based on the book Flaming Youth, by Samuel Hopkins Adams. The book caused quite a stir with its uncensored depiction of the flapper lifestyle in the roaring twenties. F. Scott Fitzgerald once wrote a letter to Adams stating that he wished he had been the one to write Flaming Youth.
