Hot for Paris Synopsis
Rough sea dog John Patrick Duke has a weakness for women and strong drink. Little does he know that he won a million dollars on Longchamp with the horses. Earlier, he caused a riot in a French hotel. He therefore thinks he is being pursued when officials try to inform him of that cash prize. In the end, John and his friend Axel are forced to take the money. This allows them to have a party with their French friends.
The Silent Lie Synopsis
Lady Lou is forced by Hatfield, her cruel foster father, into the dance hall life at a brutal lumber camp. Through the efforts of a stranger who is secretly in love with her, Lou escapes to a neighboring camp where she meets and marries the lumberjack Conahan without telling him of her past. Lou's unsavory past is finally revealed in a confrontation with her foster father, and her husband turns from her in disgust. She is once again saved by the stranger's intervention when he tells Conahan the truth about the girl's life. After Conahan's and Lou's reconciliation, the stranger, no longer needed, wanders alone into the snow.
"Hot for Paris" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Silent Lie" offers its own unique cult appeal.
