Book Description
A girl, as poor as a church mouse, arrives in the city from the country without a friend in the world. One night, Vandergrift, the manager of the Fern Garden Hall of Song heard her singing on the street. Enraptured by her beauty, he found her voice, too, was wonderful, and, of course, he stopped to listen. It was just before his opening and he needed a singer, inasmuch as his present prima donna, ‘Carlotta,’ was engaged to sing in the rival garden just across the street from his place. Well, to make a long story short, he made terms with this girl at once—offered her a big price for one night, thinking that the offer would dazzle her so much that she would feel too grateful to listen to any other offers. Well, he billed her that night as ‘Ila de Parloa,’ and her song was great; she was the hit of the evening. The very next morning she took her money and bolted, and Vandergrift lost track of her entirely.” Who was this mysterious beauty and where did she go? Did Vandergrift find her again or did she find employment elsewhere? 10% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charity. ============= KEYWORDS-TAGS: Marion Marlowe, Entrapment, sing, hall of song, beer garden, , accusation, accuse, Allyn, apartment, ass, astonishment, audience, beautiful, beauty, Bert, Blackwell’s, breakfast, breasts, Brookes, business, bum, buttocks, calm, Carlotta, cat, carriage, Celestials, cheeks, Chinaman, Clayte, Clayton, company, creature, cry, dead, deliberate, divan, Dollie, dreadful, dressing-room, Everett, extraordinary, false, fingers, flash, flush, furious, girl, glance, Graham, Green, handkerchief, Heaven, hideous, Hospital, house, Howard, husband, Ila de Parloa, innocent, instant, Island, Jack, jealous, kiss, lamp, laugh, laundry, Lindsay, Lindsay, lips, lucky, magnificent, man, manager, Marion, Marlowe, message, mischief, money, Moore, Nurse, opium, Oriental, perfect, performance, pussy, prisoner, property, Ralph, Ray, revolver, self-control, sharply, shriek, signorita, singer, sister, smoke, stage, sword, touch, trifle, vengeance, victim, weapon, whisper, wicked, woman, world, young, grace shirley

Book Description
The beautiful Marlowe twins, Marion and Dollie are in New York, living in a cheap boarding house and almost penniless. Marion had just found and rescued Dollie from the clutches of Professor Dabroski, the hypnotist, who had abducted her from her home in the country. In rescuing Dollie she had crossed swords with Emile Vorse, a fiend in the attire of a gentleman. Discovering who they are, their landlady tries to throw them out, but assistance arrives from an unexpected ally, who puts the landlady in her place. With her money returned the Marlow sisters and their new ally, Miss Allyn, depart Mrs Garvin’s shabby establishment. Ensconced in new rooms, the next day Dollie responds to an advertisement for a trainee typist and Marion wonders the city looking for work. Silas appears, as if from nowhere, and tells Dollie and Marion that he has bought the mortgage to their parents farm. He assumes that because Dollie’s reputation is somewhat tarnished, she would readily agree to marry him. He was wrong. With three months grace the sisters start laying plans to rescue their parents. But $9.00 is a long way from $500, especially in 1900’s New York. What adventures will the sisters plans lead them on and into in their attempt to earn enough to pay the $500 mortgage hanging over their parents’ lives without breaking the law?

Book Description
It is 1900 and after arriving penniless in New York, Marion Marlowe has just been accepted into a trainee nurse position at Charity Hospital. Her twin-sister, Dollie, has her eyes on a typist position, also in New York, and had also turned down Silas Johnson’s proposal of marriage. Tom, Marrion’s brother-in-law, has borrowed $500 off Marion’s parents, which forced them to take out a mortgage. In the meantime, Silas bought the mortgages off the bank with ulterior motives in mind. Tom refuses to repay the $500 leaving Marion’s parents in a tough financial spot. Out of spite Silas Johnson decides to foreclose on Marion’s parent’s farm in the hope that it may force Dollie to agree to marry him. On hearing the news, Marion immediately returns home and demands to be told why Tom borrowed the money. But what scrape did Tom get himself into, for in 1900, $500 was a great deal of money and will Marion be able to help her parents avoid the pending foreclosure?

Book Description
The central thesis of this book is that a genre approach provides the most effective means for understanding, analyzing and appreciating the Hollywood cinema. Taking into account not only the formal and aesthetic aspects of feature filmmaking, but various other cultural aspects as well, the genre approach treats movie production as a dynamic process of exchange between the film industry and its audience. This process, embodied by the Hollywood studio system, has been sustained primarily through genres, those popular narrative formulas like the Western, musical and gangster film, which have dominated the screen arts throughout this century.
