Les fils du soleil Synopsis
Thanks to Marshal Lyautey, Morocco was pacified. Only Abd-el-Kassem, who had taken refuge in the Atlas Mountains, continued the fight. He sent Ali Ben Saïd to ask Baron de Horn, a cosmopolitan financier of dubious origins, for weapons. The baron was in love with Aurore, the daughter of the Marquis de Saint-Bertrand. His marriage proposal having been rejected, he wanted revenge.
Blackmail Synopsis
Confidence artist Flossie Golden attempts to fleece foolish but wealthy James Venable with a breach-of-promise suit. Venable's shrewd attorney, Richard Harding, outwits Flossie by proposing that she marry Venable and live on an allowance of $3,000 per year. Flossie is determined to get even with Harding for ruining her plans. In an attempt to con him, she poses as Innocence Page, but falls in love and marries him instead. Larry, Flossie's former accomplice, endeavors to blackmail her with her errant past, but Harding is already cognizant of the facts and Larry fails.
"Les fils du soleil" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
