Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Telephone operator Kitty O'Brien (Madge Bellamy) can't help but get involved in the problems of her customers. Right now she is concerning herself with the well-being of Tom Blake (Lawrence Gray), the honest son of crooked political boss Jim Blake (Holbrook Blinn). Through her intervention, Kitty clears the sullied name of Blake's political opponent Matthew Standish (Warner Baxter). Grateful that his father has been saved from himself, Tom marries Kitty in the finale. Telephone Girl was directed by Herbert Brenon, a former specialist in expensive epics who did some of his best work in quiet, unassuming films such as this one.
