What happens

Queen of the Night Clubs is a 1929 American sound (All-Talking) Pre-Code musical drama film produced and directed by Bryan Foy, distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, and starred legendary nightclub hostess Texas Guinan. The picture, which featured appearances by Eddie Foy Jr., Lila Lee, and George Raft, is now considered a lost film. A mute print of the original trailer exists at the Library of Congress. In addition to this, an unofficial movie trailer for this film exists and displays no clips from the feature. This unofficial trailer was apparently made by a cinema advertising company. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
