The Timber Wolf Synopsis
Bruce Standing, known as The Timber Wolf, puts up a grubstake for Joe Terry, an old prospector in search of gold. Joe finds a rich lode, and Babe Deveril, a scoundrel who wants Joe's claim, has him jailed and beaten by the sheriff in an attempt to discover the mine's location. When Joe won't talk, Deveril orders his release from jail and forces Reenee Brooks to use her feminine wiles in another attempt to learn the mine's location. Bruce discovers this plot; after thrashing Deveril, he abducts Reenee and takes her to his cabin. Reenee gradually comes to love and respect Bruce, and he breaks up the Deveril gang.
A Sister to Salome Synopsis
When famous opera singer Elinore Duane undergoes an operation on her throat, she has a series of ether-induced visions. In one, she is transported to ancient Rome where she appears as a much-admired woman in love with Paul, a young heretic, and at odds with Lutor, the high priest. To save her love, she poisons Lutor with her ring. After several other visions which involve variations on this love triangle, Elinore awakens to discover that Lutor is actually her doctor, Sascha Jaccard, and that Paul is the son of a friend who has come to visit the recovering prima donna.
"The Timber Wolf" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Sister to Salome" offers its own unique cult appeal.
