Bare Knees
A young married woman in a small town is visited by her sister, a single "flapper" who causes a scandal in town with her bobbed hair and short skirts. She attracts the attentions of some of the local men, which causes an even greater scandal--which is made worse when her sister abruptly leaves her boorish husband for another man.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a sharp, witty satire on small-town hypocrisy, exploring the clash between rigid social conventions and the liberated spirit of the flapper era. It relies on expressive silent performances and visual comedy to highlight the absurdity of societal judgments.
What lingers after the final reel is a playful yet pointed commentary on female autonomy, wrapped in the charming aesthetics of late silent comedy. A delightful subversion of expectations delivered with a wink — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Erle C. Kenton
