Neal Hart and Janet Eastman
in
"SWEDE HEARTS"
Frieda and Ole
ATHOS and comedy are blended with drama to
make a
very unusual Victor release. George Marshall, the producer, wrote his own story, which was then put into scenario form for him bv C. J. Wilson, Jr., of the staff. Neal Hart and Janet Eastman have the appealing roles of Swedish lovers, who are ruthlessly separated by their parents. Neal goes to America, where some time later Janet follows. Joe Rickson is in the — to him — entirely congenial role of villain, and pure comedy is interspersed with the working out of dramatic situations in a way which will keep the audience in a high state of expectancy.
In Sweden, Ole Olson loves Frieda Nilssen, but owing to the quarrel between his father, Johannes, and her father, Vemer, the two are kept apart. Ole finally decides to leave for America.
Vemer wi'ites to New York to Gustaf Frese, who is swindling the immigrants, reminding him of his father's wish that he should marry Frieda, and stating that she will bring a good-sized dowry. Gus consults with his accomplice, Dick, and decides to have her come over and
Ole finds his sweetheart again.
