"The Perils of Pauline" (1947) is a feature film released by Paramount Pictures. The movie is a fictionalized Hollywood account of silent film star Pearl White's rise to fame, starring Betty Hutton as White.

The film, a broad satire of silent-movie production, is a musical-comedy vehicle for Hutton, filmed in Technicolor, with original songs by Frank Loesser (including the standard "I Wish I Didn't Love You So"). The script portrays "Pearl" as an ambitious hoyden who rises from amateur-night vaudeville to silent-screen stardom. The film also stars William Demarest, Frank Faylen, Constance Collier, Billy DeWolfe, and John Lund, and was directed by George Marshall.

Paul Panzer, who played the villain in the 1914 film, has a very small part in this film, as do silent-comedy veterans Chester Conklin, Hank Mann, Snub Pollard, and James Finlayson.
