La Bohème Synopsis
A group of starving artists try to survive in 1830s Paris, including a seamstress and the would-be playwright she loves.
Poor Relations Synopsis
Dorothy Perkins, the eldest daughter of a simple, wholesome country family, leaves for the big city to study architecture. After winning a competition, she is a success, and meets Monty Rhodes, the son of aristocratic parents. Despite his parents' objections, Monty and Dorothy marry, but Mrs. Rhodes continually humiliates Dorothy for her lack of breeding. When she finally succeeds in driving the heartbroken Dorothy back to her own family, Monty realizes his mistake, and follows her to the country, where he finds happiness with his wife and their poor relations.
"La Bohème" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Poor Relations" offers its own unique cult appeal.
