Women Men Forget Synopsis
When Mary Graham's old school chum visits, Mary's husband becomes infatuated with his wife's guest and soon openly avows his love for her. Mary is powerless to stop the affair and confides to old friend James Livingston the expected arrival of their child. Hiding her pregnancy from her husband, Mary goes to the country, where her son is born. Learning that Robert is intent upon filing for divorce, Livingston demands that the unfaithful husband repay some notes which Livingston holds. Robert is unable to pay, and Helen threatens to leave him. In contrast, Mary offers to sell her jewels to help her husband, forcing Robert to realize her true worth. He begs his wife's forgiveness, and they are joyfully united as Mary proudly introduces her husband to their son.
The Jackeroo of Coolabong Synopsis
Brian O'Farrell (Snowy Baker), is an English 'new chum' who takes a job at an Australian cattle station. He is teased by station hands because of his appearance (including spats and a monocle) but he soon impresses them with his skills at riding and boxing. The station manager, John MacDonald (Wilfred Lucas), takes O'Farrell to Sydney to meet his daughter Edith (Kathleen Key) who is working in the slums. Edith is kidnapped by criminals after witnessing a crime but O'Farrell rescues her. It is later revealed he is the owner of the station.
"Women Men Forget" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Jackeroo of Coolabong" offers its own unique cult appeal.
