The Woman He Married Synopsis
Natalie Lane, an artist's model, marries Roddy Warren, son of a steel magnate, who has been a persistent suitor and idler; but because she is considered an unsuitable match by his family, Roddy is disinherited. The couple are thus forced to give up their luxurious apartment for a cheap furnished room, and Roddy, inexperienced and totally unfitted for any kind of work, tries his hand, unsuccessfully, at writing plays. To help the domestic finances, Natalie, who has previously resisted the advances of Byrne Travers, a famous artist, agrees to pose for him. Roddy is unaware of this arrangement, but the elder Warren learns of Natalie's clandestine visits to the artist and informs his son; they discover Travers murdered in his apartment. Suspicion first rests on Natalie, but Mimi, a French model, jealous of Travers' attentions to Muriel, Roddy's sister, confesses that she shot him. Natalie, learning of Travers' scheming, protects Muriel. Roddy's father is convinced of Natalie's innocence and is reconciled to his son, who acquires a job with a theatrical agency.
Happy Though Married Synopsis
Millicent Lee is a young bride whose faith in her husband is tested when she finds a book in his possession entitled "How to Be Happy, Though Married", along with a photograph of a beautiful young woman.
"The Woman He Married" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Happy Though Married" offers its own unique cult appeal.
