An Amateur Devil Synopsis

When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
"Honeymoon Hospital" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
