synopsis
The improbably but colorfully named Louise Lovely played the title role in Bluebird's Bobbie of the Ballet. Wealthy Jack Stimson (Jay Belasco) falls in love with Broadway diva Velma Vrooman (Gretchen Lederer), and for her sake bankrolls the musical production in which she is currently starred. But when Velma proves to be fickle and unreliable, Jack shifts his affections to humble chorus girl Bobbie (Lovely). By rights, the film should end here, with the marriage of hero and heroine. But with three more reels to go, Bobbie and Jack must endure a daunting series of setbacks before True Love can prevail.
