Among the Missing Synopsis
Two young jewel thieves, Tommy and Gordon, stash their jewels on slightly dotty Aunt Martha to avoid the cops. They dupe her into helping them fence the goods. She moves in with the boys, and learns about their criminal activities. She helps reform Tommy, who is falling in love with local girl Judy. When Tommy agrees to one last job, it's up to Aunt Martha to get him out of trouble and save his burgeoning love affair with Judy.
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.
"Among the Missing" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
