Miss Ambition Synopsis
A beautiful and ambitious young woman leaves her boyfriend for a famous sculptor, and later--after she models for his statue "Miss Ambition"--marries an old but wealthy art collector. However, things don't turn out quite the way she planned.
The Clutch of Circumstance Synopsis
When businessman John Lawson is seriously injured in an accident, his wife Ruth travels from their New England village to New York to find a job that will support them both. Ruth works in a sweatshop until her health gives out, and then she is introduced to Broadway producer Rudolph "Rud" Rayburn. Rud makes Ruth a star and finally declares his love for her. Ruth wishes to remain faithful to her husband, but because rumors have circulated in the village about Ruth and Rud, John turns her out. Finally, Ruth returns to Rud and promises to marry him.
"Miss Ambition" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Clutch of Circumstance" offers its own unique cult appeal.
