Gold and the Woman Synopsis
The daughter of a Mexican aristocrat endures the travails of the Mexican revolution.
Love and Hate Synopsis
Hoping to have Helen Sterling for himself, unscrupulous stockbroker George Howard, with the help of Rita Lawson, makes up a story of having an affair with her and convinces her husband Robert to believe it, thereby prompting him to file for divorce. (Rita's motivation is that she is Robert's former sweetheart and wants to get revenge on him for throwing her over for Helen.) After the court grants Robert the divorce and custody of their little girl, George is still unable to make Helen love him, so he kidnaps her daughter and informs Helen that he will give her back only if she consents to sleep with him. Helen agrees to give in, but then, after her daughter is returned, she finds a revolver in George's apartment and, during a struggle, shoots him. With all the evidence pointing to suicide, Helen is cleared of a murder charge. She tells the real story of her trauma only to Robert, who then realizes the mistake he made in divorcing her. As a result, he asks her to marry him once again, and Helen accepts his proposal.
