It (1927 film)

It is a 1927 romantic film which tells the story of a shop girl who sets her sights on the handsome owner of the store where she works, only to find her plan endangered when a reporter writes a story claiming she is an unwed mother. It stars Clara Bow, Antonio Moreno and William Austin. The stage actress Dorothy Tree had her first film role in a small, uncredited part. Because of this film, Bow became known as the "It girl" ("It" being a euphemism for sex appeal.)
