Heedless Moths is a 1921 American silent melodrama written and directed by Robert Z. Leonard. The film stars Jane Thomas as real life nude model Audrey Munson. Munson appeared as herself in the film which was based on a series of autobiographical stories she wrote.[1][2] Heedless Moths also stars Holmes Herbert and Hedda Hopper.
Munson later sued the film's production company, Perry Plays, and producer Alan Rock for $15,000 in damages after they chose to send Jane Thomas on a tour to promote the film instead of Munson.Upon its release, Heedless Moths was generally panned by critics.[3]
