In Films
In films, Owen appeared as Princess Orsolini opposite John Gilbert's Captain Kovacs in His Glorious Night. It was to Owen that Gilbert spoke the lines, "Oh beauteous maiden, my arms are waiting to enfold you. I love you. I love you. I love you." The scene, which proved disastrous for Gilbert's career, was later parodied in the 1952 film Singin' in the Rain. In 1930, Owen starred in Lawrence Tibbet's film debut, The Rogue Song and also with Edmund Lowe in Born Reckless.
