The Snarl Synopsis
Identical twins in appearance only, sisters Helen and Marion Dean have totally different temperaments: Marion possesses a self-sacrificing character, while Helen is vain and heartless. When Marion, a wonderful singer, is crippled by a car accident just before she is to open at the grand opera, the manager of the opera conceives of the idea of presenting Helen on stage while Marion sings the music behind the scenes. A young millionaire, Monte Bruce, watching from the audience, is captivated by Helen and the two are married. Marion accompanies them on their honeymoon cruise, and when an explosion blinds Bruce, Helen begins to flirt with fellow passenger Jack Mason, leaving her crippled sister to take her place at Bruce's side. Helen's scheme goes awry when Bruce recovers his sight but keeps his recovery secret, thus discovering Helen's duplicity. When a fire breaks out on ship Helen and Mason are drowned while attempting to escape, freeing Bruce to marry Marion, who has recovered the use of her legs.
The Honorable Algy Synopsis
Algy, a British youth of ideals, is sent to America for an arranged marriage with a wealthy heiress. He goes, but reluctantly, for he is actually in love with the daughter of his vicar. The heiress, however, has a surprise in store.
"The Snarl" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Honorable Algy" offers its own unique cult appeal.
