The Laughing Third Party Synopsis
In a remote village in Southern Bavaria, hostilities run rampant between a farmer and a luxury hotel proprietor. The former has a smelly dung heap and he hopes to force the hotelier into buying him out at a large profit. Something from another era.
Blackmail Synopsis
Confidence artist Flossie Golden attempts to fleece foolish but wealthy James Venable with a breach-of-promise suit. Venable's shrewd attorney, Richard Harding, outwits Flossie by proposing that she marry Venable and live on an allowance of $3,000 per year. Flossie is determined to get even with Harding for ruining her plans. In an attempt to con him, she poses as Innocence Page, but falls in love and marries him instead. Larry, Flossie's former accomplice, endeavors to blackmail her with her errant past, but Harding is already cognizant of the facts and Larry fails.
"The Laughing Third Party" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
