It's a very nice paper, I must say I've never looked at it from that point of view. However, my US History teacher explained another way that the movie (or better yet, the book) can be seen and it has something to do with US History..I don't really remember it though, I'm such a good student. I know it's supposed to be representing the time in which the Silver vs. Gold in money fight was taking place, and in the book the red shoes are silver..and she's walking on a golden road. But yeah..this is much more interesting.
