Just Shoot Me!1997

Harry Smith:
But Claire's father was a strict Methodist, and did not approve of her daughter going to the big city with a stranger. So Nina had to wait... until she was fourteen.

Nina Van Horn:
I told my father I was going to the creek to help the minister with a baptism. Then I hopped a train east.

Harry Smith:
Unfortunately, the train she hopped was headed west, and Claire ended up in Reno, and had her first taste of show business.

Dennis Finch:
She was working at a traveling carnival operating the Tilt-A-Whirl, until somebody noticed she had eleven toes, so she started doing two shows a night in the big tent. That made her happy, I think.

Harry Smith:
Tired of low pay, and the sexual advances of the Great Honko, Claire eventually found the right train and wound up in the Big Apple, and the glamorous world of modeling.
