Three in Exile Synopsis
After severely injuring his foreman in a fight, railroad worker Art Flanders flees to the desert, where he finds companionship with a dog named Rex, and later, with Black Beauty, a runaway horse. In their search for water, the three come upon a stream on the property of Lorraine Estes, owner of a mine claim that Jed Hawkins plans to usurp. While Art does the manual labor necessary to register the claim, Jed sends several of his men to dynamite the mine. They are thwarted by Art and Black Beauty, who also bring Jed to justice. One year later, Art and Lorraine are married with a baby, and Rex is father to a litter of puppies. Black Beauty is relegated to flirting with a hobby horse.
Into the Light Synopsis
A simple country girl, brutally mistreated by her stepfather, awakens first the sympathy, then the love, of The Boy. The Spider, who lusts after The Girl, makes a bargain with the stepfather and takes her to the city where, kept prisoner, she is soon broken in health and spirit. Cast out and near death, she is taken in by The Boy. Following the demise of The Spider, The Boy takes her to church, where he prays, and after many hours she is restored to health.
"Three in Exile" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Into the Light" offers its own unique cult appeal.
