The Love Toy Synopsis
Left standing at the altar by his fiancée, Peter Remsen goes to seek consolation in the small Kingdom of Luzania, where he becomes valet to the king in order to be near the Princess Patricia. The queen of neighboring Belgradia visits Luzania and falls in love with Peter, who repulses her advances and thereby precipitates a war. As the king is busy with a dancer, Peter takes charge of the army. The queen's men kidnap Patricia, but Peter rescues her in a tank and makes her his bride.
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.
"The Love Toy" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
