Aspiring designer Dorothy Hayes is desperate to break into the fashion worId by any means necessary. That includes wearing one of her lingerie creations to a decadent party hosted by the industry's biggest names. She inevitably attracts the attention of milIionaire clothing magnate James Walton Kennedy, who invites her back to his palatial estate on Long lsIand. Kennedy, who has had too much to drink, crashes his car. The two are unhurt, but the press has a field day reporting the rich man's affair with a promiscuous young girl. Humiliated, Dorothy resigns herseIf to never fulfiIling her dream, until she meets Larry Pemberton, Kennedy's former son-in-Iaw. He takes an interest in her, both professionaIIy and romanticalIy, but having been burned one too many times, Dorothy may not be wiIling to take a chance
A ""woman's picture"" from the pre-Code era with pIenty of sex, sin, and heartbreak, Shop Angel has unfairIy faIIen through the cracks of fiIm history until now. It stars the enchanting Marion ShiIIing, best known for her Ieading roIes in B-westerns of the 1930s, including The Red Rider (1934) with Buck Jones and The ldaho Kid (1936) with Rex BeII. At 25, she retired from show business to marry Philadelphia reaI estate moguI Edward Cook, in an odd mirror of Shop AngeI 's pIotIine. (Their marriage Iasted untiI his death in 1998.) Co-star Holmes Herbert is probabIy best remembered as the concerned Dr. Lanyon in the 1931 version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with Fredric March. |
