Film career

Valli continued to appear in films into the 1920s. By the mid-1920s, she had been an established actress at the Universal studio. She was the female protagonist in King Vidor's southern gothic Wild Oranges in 1924, a film now recovered from film vault obscurity. "The man she should have married, the man she should have married, and the man she DID marry were all included in Every Woman's Life," she wrote about "the man she should have married, the man she should have married, and the man she refused to marry." The bulk of her films were produced between 1924 and 1927, and they included Alfred Hitchcock's debut feature, Paid to Love (1925), as well as Evening Clothes (1927), which featured Adolphe Menjou. Valli performed in The Man Who Discovered Himself with Thomas Meighan in 1925.

In 1929, Jason Robards Sr. and Noah Beery Sr. took The Isle of Lost Ships, her first sound photograph. In 1931, she appeared in Night Life in Reno.
