A 50-minute moral panic about country girls going wild in 1920 Manhattan. Delicious.
Mary Horton, a country girl, moves to New York to make her living as a seamstress, where she meets Hilda Newton, an old neighbor who has renounced her country ways for the immoral life of the city. Mary moves in with Hilda and meets Bob Merrick who, charmed by the girl's innocence determines to protect her.
Costume
The visual shorthand of 'sinful' city fashion vs. humble frocks.
Acting
Alice Brady's wide-eyed innocence is pure silent cinema.
Director
Kenneth S. Webb
