Footlights and Fools is a 1929 American sound film directed by William A. Seiter that was billed by Warner Brothers as an all-talking musical film and released in Vitaphone with Technicolor sequences.

Moore plays the "dual" role of a French singer in America who was originally an American chorus girl in France to acquire a new persona.

This film was Moore's fourth film under her contract signed February 28, 1929, and followed Smiling Irish Eyes, also with Moore and directed by Seiter.

This is considered a lost film with only the Vitaphone disks existing.
