An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Food for Scandal, the 1920 James Cruze silent San Francisco California romantic comedy melodrama ("From the play 'Beverly's Balance' by Paul Kester"; about an orphaned woman from a formerly rich family who goes to San Francisco and gets a job in a chorus line, where she becomes known as "The Kissing Girl", which causes her straight-laced attorney boyfriend to break up with her, but everything works out in the end) starring Wanda Hawley, Harrison Ford (obviously, not the same Harrison Ford that we know as an actor today, but a very popular leading man of the 1920s), Ethel Grey Terry, Margaret McWade, Lester Cuneo, and Minnie Devereaux. Note that Lester Cuneo had been a major comedy star at the Selig Studio in 1912, but after just a few movies, he chose to re-invent himself as a cowboy star, and had success there as well, also playing dramatic roles at the same time. He served in World War I (WWI), and returned to Hollywood and again began making westerns, playing a character billed as "The Smiling Daredevil". But by the early 1920s, his westerns were less and less successful, and after a series of personal and professional failures, Cuneo could not get any parts at all, and he committed suicide in 1925. Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
