In a story, with the back-drop of San Francisco's general labor strike of 1934 (depicted by newsreel footage), a Civil War veteran , Hank (Willard Mack), sets out to show his two oldest sons, Max (Ben Lyon) and George (Charles Sabin), the error of their ways when they take an interest in Communism propaganda. Willard Mack, who directed, wrote and starred in this film, died shortly after the film was finished.
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.
"Together We Live" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Sister to Salome" offers its own unique cult appeal.
