Louise Brooks, the 1920’s silver screen sensation, epitomized the restless, reckless spirit of the Jazz Age. But, just a few years earlier, she was a 15-year-old student in Wichita, Kansas for whom fame and fortune were only dreams. When an opportunity arises for her to study in New York with a leading dance troupe, her mother (Victoria Hill, First Reformed) insists there be a chaperone. Norma Carlisle (Elizabeth McGovern, The Wife), a local society matron who never broke a rule in her life, impulsively volunteers to accompany Louise (Haley Lu Richardson, Support the Girls, Columbus) to New York for the summer. Based on Laura Moriarty’s beloved New York Times bestselling novel, The Chaperone reunites the writer (Oscar-winner Julian Fellowes), director (Michael Engler), and star (Elizabeth McGovern) of “Downton Abbey” for an immersive and richly emotional period piece.
