Synopsis of "The Flirt" I
"The Flift" is the story of the
folks next door. It lifts the roof
from a middle class house and finds
the Madison family of Capital City,
with a surplus of love and a short
age of money. The father's name is
as good as a bond, but it doesn't
draw interest. ,
Cora, one daughter, is selfish, lazy,'
Intolerant but pretty. Laura, her
sister, is a reflection of her gentle
mother. Hedrick. the little pest, is
a composite of every "baby brother."
Cora's flirtations with the men of
the town, the struggle of the father
for a living; how he is involved in
a confidence game, and the eventual
triumph of love, gives the screen
what is perhaps its greatest blending
of laughter and tears with drama.
"I HATE YOU!
I HATE YOU!"
"What have you eve done for me? Raised me
like a pauper in this rotten old house ... and now
you won't do the one thing that might make me
happy!.... I HATE YOU!"
This was his daughter .... his Cora! And he lov
ed her so ... . and this was his reward .... his bit
ter harvest!
A scene that you'll remember forever!
