Miss Lulu Bett

Miss Lulu Bett is a 1922 film which tells the story of an unmarried woman, treated as little better than a charwoman in the house of her married sister, who becomes the center of scandal when she is jokingly "married" to an already-married man. It stars Lois Wilson[?], Milton Sills[?], Theodore Roberts[?], Helen Ferguson[?], Mabel Van Buren[?] and Ethel Wales[?].

The movie was adapted by Clara Beranger[?] from the novel and play by Zona Gale[?]. It was directed by William C. de Mille[?].

In the era prior to the Academy Awards, Miss Lulu Bett received rave reviews from the movie magazines of its time, notably Photoplay[?], Variety and Harrison's Report[?]. In 2001 the United States Library of Congress deemed the film "culturally significant" and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry.
