A Woman's Heart Synopsis
Eve Allen marries John Waring for his money and admits it, as she still has a lasting love for her old sweetheart, Ralph Deane. When the Warings return from their honeymoon, Ralph asks Eve to see him once more, and while driving in the country he breaks down Eve's resistance and she admits she loves him. She goes home and tells John, who begins divorce proceedings. Patsy Allen, Eve's sister, tries to break up Eve's affair with Ralph, as she knows he is keeping company with Vixen, a sensuous woman. Patsy goes to Ralph's home for dinner, where Vixen grows jealous and shoots and kills him while he and John are fighting. John is accused of the murder but is cleared. Vixen commits suicide, and Eve returns to John, now believing that John is the only man for her--not surprising, since Ralph is dead.
Into the Light Synopsis
A simple country girl, brutally mistreated by her stepfather, awakens first the sympathy, then the love, of The Boy. The Spider, who lusts after The Girl, makes a bargain with the stepfather and takes her to the city where, kept prisoner, she is soon broken in health and spirit. Cast out and near death, she is taken in by The Boy. Following the demise of The Spider, The Boy takes her to church, where he prays, and after many hours she is restored to health.
"A Woman's Heart" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
