WILDA BENNETT

 

From Who's Who on the Screen (1920)

Wilda Bennett, entrancing little screen player of the Metro Pictures Corporation forces, made her screen debut in "Love, Honor and Obey," a screen adaptation by Eugene Walter of Charles Neville Buck's novel, "The Tyranny of Weakness." Miss Bennett up until making her bow in shadowland, confined her career to musical comedy, winning her greatest success in "Apple Blossoms," in which she was a featured player. In her first screen play she was called upon to play a role that called for a note of tragic intensity and critics agree that she has realized it superbly. Miss Bennett, so those who have seen her first screen work agree, is quite another Wilda from the frolicsome musical comedy star who made New York audiences ripple with laughter only a short time back.
