Mother Synopsis
Mrs. Ellis tries to maintain happiness and comfort in her family, even at the cost of her own happiness. When the family comes on hard times, she sells her personal belongings, yet her family reacts ungratefully, and her husband becomes romantically involved with a client at his architectural firm. The family seems on the verge of ruin when Mrs. Ellis gets an opportunity to put things right.
Into the Light Synopsis
A simple country girl, brutally mistreated by her stepfather, awakens first the sympathy, then the love, of The Boy. The Spider, who lusts after The Girl, makes a bargain with the stepfather and takes her to the city where, kept prisoner, she is soon broken in health and spirit. Cast out and near death, she is taken in by The Boy. Following the demise of The Spider, The Boy takes her to church, where he prays, and after many hours she is restored to health.
"Mother" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
