Desc: The Skyrocket: Directed by Marshall Neilan. With Gladys Brockwell, Charles West, Muriel McCormac, Frank Coghlan Jr.. In the prologue Sharon Kimm and Mickey Reid are childhood friends in a tenement neighborhood but are separated when Sharon is placed in an orphanage. The story then presents Sharon as a young Hollywood star whose quick rise to fame leaves her a self-centered, superficial spendthrift. Ironically, the film that skyrocketed her to fame was written by Mickey. But her success is brief, and when it comes crashing to earth, Mickey is there to pick up the pieces.
