The Snow Girls (1927)
c 1927 Buxton, Derbyshire. Sleigh is pulled by two large horses across a snowy field. Children and two women with sledges. People sledge down a snowy hillside. Hampstead: women and children have snowball fights. Closer shots of people sledging. Berlin: indoor ( ) sledging and skiing in an Ice Palace. A long line of people in snowshoes walk along holding waists in a snake like formation looks pretty mad A man helps a girl in a swimsuit take her trousers off. She then takes off her stockings and puts slippers on. She lies on a blanket on the snow with a cigarette in her mouth. Her friend pulls off her boots (which she didn t have on before) it looks like this was supposed to be a bit of trick photography to make it look as if the boots suddenly disappeared, but it didn t quite work The woman lies on the blanket smiling at the camera and fluffing her hair. We then see her doing a Charleston style dance in the snow with another outfit on but still showing a lot of flesh. F
