Fifth Avenue Models Synopsis
A model in an expensive clothing shop quarrels with another model, and an expensive gown is ruined. To pay for it, she asks her father, an artist, for the money, but in order to get the money, the father gets mixed up with art thieves and is caught and arrested.
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.
"Fifth Avenue Models" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
