Dolores Rousse
Dolores Rousse was an American film actress who performed under the name Gloria Roy later in her career.
Career
In May 1922, it was reported that Rousse would appear in Ziegfeld Follies after she won a newspaper beauty contest.Her first film was No Mother to Guide Her. The Plain Speaker wrote, "Another prominent actress in the photodrama is Dolores Rousse, who was with the Follies previous to her first screen appearance in No Mother to Guide Her. Her work in this picture gained her a contract and a leading part in other Fox productions".
Variety noted her performance in Against All Odds, calling her character a "rather an insipid heroine, possibly because the love interest is never emphasized to any appreciable degree".
The Ukiah Dispatch Democrat wrote of her performance in Oh, You Tony!: "Dolores is not only an actress, but if she came on the stage with the lights turned off, the audience would think that she carried her own spotlight--this child sends forth an aura of light in the brilliance of her beauty".
Variety wrote the following about her performance in Thunder in the Night : "Gloria Roy, girl who murdered her would-be blackmailer out of unrequited love, isn't in the footage as much as others, but gives a good account of herself while there."
She appeared in films in the Charlie Chan series and in the Mr. Moto series.
