A Star Fell from Heaven Synopsis
A music student is hired to dub an indisposed tenor in a film entitled A Star fell from Heaven. He does it to become successful and be able to propose to his beloved, his housekeeper's daughter. But things won't be so easy. English version of one of the few Joseph Schmidt films, with a different ending than the German one.
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 Star Fell from Heaven" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
