493 - Feet First, United States, 1930.  Dir. Clyde Bruckman.

Harold Horne is at it again.

Harold is a shoe salesman.  At least he wants to be one.  His boss does not believe in him.  His boss keeps him stuck in a lowly job fetching and stretching shoes for the shoe salesmen.

He practices his selling technique with the mannequin legs.

And dreams of making it big one day.

One day he meets the girl of his dreams.  Of course he does.  This is a Harold Lloyd picture.  So Harold is going to fall in love.

This time it is with Barbara.

He takes a six-month course on how to have a personality, from the Personality-Plus Corporation.

Then he pretends to be a leather tycoon.

Then he finds out the girl is the boss's daughter.

And she is on the verge of finding out who he really is.  The lowly worker who cannot even get promoted to salesman.

If only his new Personality can rescue him.
