Princess Virtue Synopsis
Count Oudoff, a fortune-hunting European nobleman, marries a wealthy American widow and brings his new wife and her pretty young daughter Lianne back to Paris. When word gets around that Lianne stands to inherit a good deal of money when her rich grandmother passes away, every gold-digging nobleman in Paris sets his sights on her, but she's waiting for a special "prince" to sweep her away. When her distant cousin Basil arrives from Amerca on a mission from her grandmother to investigate the young girl's situation, Lianne believes that she might have finally found the "prince" she has sought.
Face Value Synopsis
Joan runs away from home and becomes a cashier at a restaurant, but quits when the manager attempts to make love to her. She meets Louie, with whom she was once friendly, and he forces her to steal for him. She is caught and sentenced to a state reformatory.
"Princess Virtue" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Face Value" offers its own unique cult appeal.
