The Black Diamond Express Synopsis
Dan Foster (Monte Blue), the engineer of the Black Diamond Express express train falls in love with Jeanne Harmon (Edna Murphy), whose snobbish, high society mother, Mrs. Harmon (Myrtle Stedman), does not approve of the blue-collar, rough-at-the-edges Dan Foster as a suitable husband for Jeanne.
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.
"The Black Diamond Express" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
