Wiki.
Polly of the Follies is a 1922 American silent romantic comedy film starring Constance Talmadge, Horace Knight, and Thomas Carr. It is presumed to be lost; all that is known to have survived is a trailer. An intertitle from the trailer states that Talmadge plays "a stagestruck country girl who hits New York and strikes Ziegfeld for a job". According to the Internet Movie Database, this was James Gleason's film debut. A trailer for the film was preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2009.
