Das verlorene Tal Synopsis
When a young man returns to his estate in an Alpine valley, he finds a civil engineer, engaged to his childhood sweetheart, is threatening the mystical peace of the forest by trying to unloose a water source there.
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.
"Das verlorene Tal" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
