Elizabeth Allan .... Lucie Manette
Elizabeth Allan, who played Lucie Manette, has to be one of the lovelist actresses ever to appear in Hollywood, during the silver-screen days. At a time when there was a push for ugly tomboys and androgynous actresses (a trend that's never really gone away, in Hollywood), Elizabeth Allan was a stunning example of true femininity and beauty. Even today, there are few actresses who are this attractive. It's a shame that she didn't have a more notable Hollywood career.
