The Show-Off is a 1925 American silent film comedy produced by Famous Players-Lasky and distributed by Paramount Pictures, based on the play of the same name by George Kelly. Directed by Mal St. Clair, the film stars Ford Sterling, Lois Wilson and Louise Brooks.
It's one of two films that co-starred popular Broadway actor Gregory Kelly (first husband of Ruth Gordon) who died shortly after The Show-Off wrapped production. The film was produced in Philadelphia and New York City thus becoming a sort of time capsule record of buildings long gone and neighborhoods changed.

Actually from 1926, one of the Miss Brooks' first credited roles and ones that have survived thankfully' This movie could only have been improved with more Louise, when she is on screen it is impossible to take your eyes off her, well at least for me

*I really enjoyed it!* I came for Louise Brooks and got impressed by Ford Sterling's perfomance. He had a long career and among many roles he played the Keystone Cops' Police Chief.

Yes, he really did a great job in this film, quite funny!

Vanadium and Manganese both actually _will_ prevent rusting and corrosion. Just as Joe stated of his invention and as Aubrey boasted during his sales pitch. And as always Louise Brooks was an absolute knock out!

I Wonder If Louise Brooks Could Have Been A Star, If She Were In Hollywood Now.Of Course As She Was Then !! The Most Beautiful Actress In Hollywood!!

Was Louise Brooks ever NOT one of the most beautiful women on screen? She's almost luminous here, especially next to most of the other players. There's also a great inside joke involving the car. When Sterling calls his wife, he says his Uncle George Stitch left him the shares. Sterling's real name was George Ford Stitch! Thanks for the upload.

Just short of 100 years ago, my great grandmother could have been watching this..... Louise Brooks looks so modern, she could walk in any fashion show & be totally hot

Love Louise Brooks! And it's fun to see the silent version of a film better known through its sound remakes.

Gregory Kelly, the brother, was already ill when he made this movie & died a year later. He was married to Ruth Gordon & made just 2 films. Ford Sterling is a real hoot playing this super annoying character---he was mainly known as the Police Chief of the Keystone Cops.

Nice film ❤

A thoroughly enjoyable film, despite its great age. The facial expressions are completely modern and belie the film's being almost 100 years old. The obnoxious braying of Ford's character is worth viewing by itself. I still wonder how a blowhard like him could capture lovely Lois Wilson's heart!

The Narcissist would have been a more accurate title.

Credit the naturalism of the acting to director Malcolm St. Clair. Miss Brooks disgraced herself when she described St. Clair as an incompetent and drunk. A pity.
