Two Girls Wanted Synopsis
Marianna Miller, dressing as a boy to seek employment in the city, becomes involved with a gang of ruffians; and when she hits Dexter Wright, a young businessman, with a tomato, he detects her disguise and helps her obtain a secretarial position with his competitor. Misunderstanding his interests in her girl friend, Edna, Marianna and her pal answer an advertisement for two girls wanted--a maid and a cook--and end up as servants in the country house of Dexter's uncle. Marianna learns of a plan to swindle Dexter's uncle, and in the process, she and Dexter fall in love. .
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.
"Two Girls Wanted" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Sister to Salome" offers its own unique cult appeal.
