Maiden and Men

1912États-Unis14 min
The film

This girl (a frowzy backwoods maiden who pines for the romance of the world), who has never known what it means to have the association of men, has derived all her romantic ideas from one lone novel, read when her father was away. She blossoms into womanhood and the call for companionship becomes insistent. One evening she slips away and travels to a distant ranch, to find employment as a maid-of-all-work, and it is here that she first experiences men. it is not as she thought and hoped it would be. They are rough, brutal and selfish. It is a rude awakening, and when the old lady, her employer, tells her to go back where she came from she accepts her advice, glad to get away from it all and live alone with her father
