Los hijos de Eva
Producer
“Children of Eve” adopta un enfoque melodramático en el que describe los eventos inspirados en el incendio de la fábrica Triangle Shirtwaist de 1911. La película exige reformas a las condiciones de trabajo y presenta impactantes representaciones de la vida dentro de la fábrica. La película es también una rara oportunidad de ver el profesionalismo del director John Collins, quien trabajó para la compañía Edison y - como señala Richard Koszarski - fue considerado como uno de los grandes cineastas de su tiempo antes de que su vida fue trágicamente truncada por la la epidemia de influenza en 1918.
