Seven Bald Pates Synopsis
Bobby is told by a friend, in error, that a bald man will be attempting to serve him a subpoena at his wedding. When a kindly bald-headed man picks up Bobby's dropped marriage license and tries to offer it to him, Bobby runs and hides. His friends try to help Bobby by tying up several bald-headed wedding guests, thinking they may be process-servers.
An Amateur Devil Synopsis
Carver Endicott, a young sophisticate, is rejected by his fiancée for being too foppish and dull. When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
"Seven Bald Pates" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
