Blonde or Brunette Synopsis
Fanny is the new wife of stolid Henri Martel. Leaving on an important business trip, Henri foolishly leaves Fanny with the more worldly Blanche, who teaches the girl to drink, smoke and do the Charleston. The returning Martel, who hates Jazz and everything that goes with it, promptly divorces this new and improved Fanny, only to marry Blanche. But Henri and Fanny are reunited in order to avoid breaking the heart of the latter's visiting grandmother, discovering in the middle of the deception that they still love each other.
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.
"Blonde or Brunette" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
