ashley h @ashleyhobgood87 12/21/2019 The Extra Girl is a pretty good film. It is about Sue Graham who wants to be a motion picture star. Mabel Normand and Ralph Graves give okay performances. The screenplay was a little slow in places. F. Richard Jones did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the humor and romance.
