The Man with One Red Shoe
Starring...Tom Hanks
For those who’ve never seen it - The Man with One Red Shoe is truly one of my favorite movies and is rich in clown lore (”can’t take the chance, better send somebody down the sewer”) lol
in keeping with the ‘red shoes’
In L. Frank Baum’s original novel, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900), on which the film is based, Dorothy wears Silver Shoes. However, the color of the shoes was changed to red in order to take full advantage of the new Technicolor film process being used in big-budget Hollywood films of that era.
