Shoes

Teenage shopgirl Eva Meyer (Mary MacLaren) dutifully brought her meager earnings home to the tenement she shared with her siblings, struggling mother (Mattie Witting), and shiftless father (Harry Griffith). With no better prospects in sight--and unable to afford even the new shoes she covets--she weighs submitting to the sleazy advances of a creepy customer (William V. Mong). Lois Weber’s striking social drama co-stars Jessie Arnold, Lina Basquette. 60 min. Standard; Soundtrack: music score. Silent with music score.
