Very frustrating! I know her elder face, but was unable to deduce her name — even though her company in ‘Monsieur Verdoux’ is Margaret Hamilton & Charles Chaplin.

Marjorie Bennett! I finally got it when you ran the photo from Chaplin’s “Limelight.” I think it may be Molly Glessing as the lady on the left.

The film is MONSIEUR VERDOUX with Charlie Chaplin and I believe Ada May with Miss Bennett. I found stills of her in Thomas Ince’ MIDNIGHT PATROL (1918) and NAUGHTY, NAUGHTY! (Paramount, 1918).

The movie is Limelight and Marjorie is shown with Charles Chaplin and I believe Mollie Glessing.

Not commenting on the mystery star – but wondering when you’ll be at Phillipe’s again for a Saturday lunch.

Of course, it’s Marjorie Bennett, but I vote with Mary Mallory that the movie is “Monsieur Verdoux” and not “Limelight” which makes the other maid Ada May and not Mollie Glessing.

I KNEW that face (pix w/cat) from “Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?” as she was Victor Buono’s ghastly mother.
