A dark-haired silent-screen leading man with a widow's peak, Louisiana-born Vincent Coleman had been a professional actor since the age of 12, had toured with the legendary Cecil Spooner stock company and had appeared on Broadway opposite Arnold Daly in Beau Brummel. Playing juvenile leads for Fox, Goldwyn, and First National, Coleman did his best work for Paramount in the early '20s, when he was groomed for stardom opposite Constance Binney in The Magic Cup and Such a Little Queen (both 1921), the latter a remake of the 1914 Mary Pickford classic. Coleman later played Herod to Diana Allen's Salome (1923), but the independently produced "epic" proved a disaster at the box office and he returned to Broadway. ~ Hans J. Wollstein, Rovi
