A Rainy Knight Synopsis
Sweethearts Jimmie Carter and Bessie Barnes work for Adolph Brock at the Acme Corporation. One day while he is out for a drive in his jalopy of a car, Jimmie spies a pretty young woman on horseback. After she falls off her horses and gets injured, he leads her to refuge in an abandoned cabin when the heavy rain starts. When she flirts with him, he is attracted to her but stifles his urges, wanting to remain faithful to Bessie. When this woman mysteriously disappears, he can't stop thinking about her and follows her innuendo to meet with her at her apartment, all the while unaware that she is Peggy Joyce, Brock's gold-digging fiancée, who has ulterior motives for coming on to him--which, combined with her dangerous past, could lead to complications for all involved.
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 Rainy Knight" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
