Sole Film
Her only screen credit is a small role in Dancing Lady (1934). The MGM motion picture reunited Clark Gable and Joan Crawford for the fourth time on film, this time in a musical comedy in which Crawford replaces Foy as the star of a Broadway show. The unique supporting cast includes Franchot Tone, dancer Fred Astaire in his first screen appearance, humorist Robert Benchley, and comedian Ted Healy and his Three Stooges.
Sometime in 1934 Foy returned to New York and resumed work as a star of musical comedy. She returned to Los Angeles and was the guest of Kay Kyser at the Miramar Theater in September. While Kyser entertained with music, Foy and Edwards danced together with Sidney Blackmer and Suzanne Kaaren.

Famous quotes containing the words sole and/or film:
“Curiosity is only vanity. Most frequently we wish to know only to talk. Thus we would not take a sea voyage—if we were never to speak of it—for the sole pleasure of seeing without hope of ever communicating it.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“[Film noir] experiences periodic rebirth and rediscovery. Whenever we have any moment of deep societal rift or disruption in America, one of the ways we can express it is through the ideas and behavior in film noir.”
—John Briley (b. 1925)
