Plot

As described in a film magazine,[4] Alice Lambert (Stewart), after spending ten years in idleness and luxury, finds herself without funds and must make her way in the world. She becomes a cloak model, but the proprietor of the shop proves to be a despicable character and she leaves when he attempts to embrace her. She next secures work as an artist's model, but flees from the studio half clad when the artist attempts to make violent love to her. She seeks refuge in another studio belonging to artist David Leighton (McGrail), who prevents her suicide by offering to loan her $50,000. In return, she is to take out a life insurance policy for $75,000 for one year. At the end of the year, of course, she is supposed to die and David would be ahead by $25,000. This scheme results in several incidents and a happy ending.

Cast

gollark: The really weird thing is that Firefox didn't actually seem to be *sending* any request or whatever for the websockets. Nothing appears in devtools, wireshark didn't show anything websocket-looking (although I am not very good at using it, I think it was working because it showed the regular HTTP requests), mitmproxy didn't say anything either, and the webserver logs don't show it.
gollark: I've decided to just update caddy and see if that helps, since I am a bit overdue for switching to v2.
gollark: I have some applications sending data over websocket to the browser - mostly JSON. They work in Chrome and Firefox on Android, but not on Firefox on my Linux systems - it just says "failed to establish connection". Specifically, they work if I run them directly on my local machine but not behind my server's reverse proxy.
gollark: Anyone know a good place to ask about this?
gollark: Also, the webserver doesn't seem to show any accesses happening either.
