The Man Who Laughs Synopsis
France in the late 1600s, the son of a widowed lord is kidnapped by gypsies, who carve a permanent grin on the child's face. When the deformed boy grows up, he falls in love with a blind girl named Dea, and joins a touring company as a performer. Calling himself Gwynplaine, he develops an act in which he reveals his hideous face to the crowds for money. A sexually perverse, seductive socialite named Josiane becomes attracted to him and seeks to possess him.
The Hundredth Chance Synopsis
A lady marries a horse trainer but withholds herself until her crippled brother is cured.
"The Man Who Laughs" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Hundredth Chance" offers its own unique cult appeal.
