Geraldine Synopsis
Mr. Wygate, a wealthy businessman, is rising in social circles and decides his daughter Geraldine must become more refined and so hires Eddie Able to educate her. Eddie soon falls in love with her, but she has eyes only for a well-known lawyer and young man-about-town, Bellsworth Cameron, who has shown little interest in her. Suffering through his unrequited love, Eddie works to make Geraldine the ideal society lady, and to capture the interest of Cameron. Eventually Cameron starts seeing her but his true colors are shown when Geraldine is arrested in a speakeasy, and Eddie rescues her.
The Corsican Brothers Synopsis
Although separated at birth, Siamese twins Fabien and Louis de Franchi remain united emotionally. One day, Parisian Emilie de Lesparre arrives in their Corsican village with her father, and both brothers fall in love with her. Louis goes to Paris to study law and sees Emilie often, but Emilie loves Fabien who has remained in Corsica with their mother. While attending a dinner given by another admirer of Emilie's, M. Chateau Renaud, Louis is drawn into a duel with Renaud and killed. Back home, Fabien senses what has happened and journeys to Paris to avenge his brother's death. After he kills Renaud in a duel, Emilie finally confesses her love to Fabien.
"Geraldine" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Corsican Brothers" offers its own unique cult appeal.
