Sisters of Eve (1928)

Leonard Tavernake, an ambitious young real estate broker in London, befriends a girl who has attempted to commit suicide. She is one of two sisters who have come from America on a vaudeville tour. The girl's sister, who has married a millionaire, has driven him mad by her unkindness, and keeps him captive in the country, alive only so as to be able to sign her checks. Leonard also becomes entangled with the second sister's, discovers her perfidy, and saves her from death at the hands of her maniac husband, thereby winning the love of the sister he initially befriended.
