Dance Pretty Lady Synopsis
A ballerina falls in love with a wealthy young artist. However, rather than marry her, he wants her to become his mistress. She refuses. Not long afterwards, he tells her he's changed his mind and agrees to marry her, but by this time, she's beginning to wonder if she can trust him or not.
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.
"Dance Pretty Lady" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
