A Midnight Bell Synopsis
Traveling salesman Martin Tripp gets fired from his job while in a small town. He decides to remain there and find work. He gets a job at the local general store and uses his city skills to make the store profitable. He has several adventures in the town, overcoming bank robbers and solving the mystery of a haunted church.
An Amateur Devil Synopsis
Carver Endicott, a young sophisticate, is rejected by his fiancée for being too foppish and dull. When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
"A Midnight Bell" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
