Alimente Synopsis
Germany at the time of the end of the Weimar Republic. The saleswoman Anna Gerlach looks forward to the joys of motherhood. She has already found accommodation with the Breuer's. The daughter of the house, Lissy Breuer, is also hopeful. The biggest difference between the two expectant mothers is the expected alimony.
Blackmail Synopsis
Confidence artist Flossie Golden attempts to fleece foolish but wealthy James Venable with a breach-of-promise suit. Venable's shrewd attorney, Richard Harding, outwits Flossie by proposing that she marry Venable and live on an allowance of $3,000 per year. Flossie is determined to get even with Harding for ruining her plans. In an attempt to con him, she poses as Innocence Page, but falls in love and marries him instead. Larry, Flossie's former accomplice, endeavors to blackmail her with her errant past, but Harding is already cognizant of the facts and Larry fails.
"Alimente" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
