Lovetime Synopsis

In France, artist Arthur de Sivry, also known as the Marquis of Savoy, falls in love with Marie Gautier, a peasant girl from the country. His depraved uncle, Count de Baudine, who leases his farm to the Gautiers, makes unwelcome advances on Marie until she joins a troop of entertainers in Paris. Arthur follows her to the city and offers the use of his vacant apartment. Upon learning of their arrangement, the count spreads rumors to ruin Marie's reputation and claims that Arthur is engaged to another woman. Marie's father returns from a visit to Paris and, believing the rumors to be true, tells his wife of their daughter's downfall. However, Arthur finally proposes to Marie and all ends happily.

Snares of Paris Synopsis

Prominent French diplomat Emile Coullard is preparing an important international trade agreement. When Belloc appears at Coullard's country home to help prepare the document, it becomes evident that Belloc had met Marguerite, Coullard's charming wife, before. It later develops that Belloc had deceived and taken advantage of Marguerite when she was an innocent girl just out of a convent. Fernand, the illegitimate product of the union, had been raised by her friend, attorney De Brionne who, on his deathbed, declares that henceforth Marguerite should care for her grown child, now a notorious drinker. Marguerite arranges for Coullard to take Fernand as his secretary. Meanwhile, Belloc attempts to obtain the secret agreement in order to sell the information to a stock brokerage that could then make a killing on the market. Belloc forces Marguerite to open the safe by threatening to expose her past. A fight ensues with Fernand, and in attempting to escape, Belloc falls from a window to his death. Coullard eventually discovers everything, but forgives Marguerite of her past mistakes.
