The Chorus Lady is a 1924 American silent drama film directed by Ralph Ince and starring Margaret Livingston, Alan Roscoe, and Virginia Lee Corbin.^[1][2] It is based on the play of the same name by James Forbes, which was previously filmed in 1915 as The Chorus Lady.

Entertainer Patricia O'Brien (Livingston) is engaged to Dan Mallory (Roscoe), who races horses. When his prize horse "Lady Belle" is blinded in a fire, the wedding is postponed. Patricia returns to New York City with her younger sister Nora (Corbin) to work in the Follies. Dan enters his blind horse in a $20,000 race and wins, so he goes to New York City to finish the wedding. Things go awry when he finds Patricia in the apartment of Dick Crawford (McCullough). However, it turns out that she went there to rescue her younger sister Nora.^[3]
