Tomorrow's Love Synopsis
Judith marries Robert Stanley and for a time, all her dreams of happiness are realized. As the months go by, however, she is increasingly disturbed by his stubborn adherence to annoying habits, wrong beliefs, and small faults, such as leaving the windows open when he is cold and driving an open car in the rain when he feels ill. On one of these aquatic trips, Robert's car breaks down and he is picked up by Bess Carlysle, an old girl friend, who insists that they go to her apartment to dry his clothes. Following a whiskey and a hot bath for his feet, Robert is dancing with Bess when Judith walks in on them. She suspects the worst, and Robert is too stubborn to explain. Judith secures an interlocutory divorce and travels to Europe, while Robert becomes engaged to Bess, more out of pique than love. Shortly before the divorce becomes final, Judith changes her mind and returns to the United States. After a frantic trip by car and boat, she arrives just in time to prevent Tom's remarriage, and they are reconciled.
The Key to Power Synopsis
Bruce Wendell, the son of West Virginia coal mine owner James Wendell, graduates from West Point and prepares to lead a fighting unit to the front during World War I. As his father lies dying, however, he convinces Bruce to remain at home and guard the mine. Bruce's fiancée Ann Blair assumes that he is a coward and breaks off their engagement, but her brother Bobbie remains Bruce's loyal friend. Meyer, a German agent, persuades railroad president Parrish to refuse to transport Wendell's coal, but when Bruce adamantly refuses to close the mine, the spy's men decide to blow it up. While Ann is being abducted by Meyer, Bobbie is buried in an explosion at the mine. Bruce rescues Bobbie and then sends a plea to Lieutenant Parrish to rescue Ann. Meyer and his gang are captured and Ann renews her vow of love to Bruce.
"Tomorrow's Love" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Key to Power" offers its own unique cult appeal.
