State Street Sadie Synopsis
Framed for the murder of a policeman, gangster Joe Blake commits suicide. "The Bat," a gang leader, is the real murderer. Joe's twin brother, Ralph, joins the gang to get revenge and clear Joe's name. There he meets the daughter of the murdered policeman, Isobel, posing as "State Street Sadie" to get her own revenge. The two become involved in a net of intrigue culminating in the capture of the gang by police. The Bat, trapped on a roof, leaps to his death while Ralph and Isobel contemplate marriage.
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.
"State Street Sadie" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
