One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
In the early 1920s, a Kansas woman finds her life forever changed when she accompanies a young dancer on her fame-seeking journey to New York City.
"Director Michael Engler (responsible for several episodes of the series 'Downton Abbey', and also the feature film spin-off) presents 'The Chaperone', a drama set in 1920s New York and based on the true story of Ruth St. Denis (one of the pioneers of modern dance) and Louise Brooks (actress, dancer, and icon of the Jazz Age). Unfortunately, the movie fails to bring this story to the screen, not knowing if it is a drama or a comedy. The main highlight of the cast is Elizabeth McGovern, also from 'Downton Abbey' - something that may attract fans of the series."
