'''The Awakening of Alice''' is about a mousy woman whose flighty sister has become engaged to some wealthy playboy. When she runs away from her boyfriend, he commits an attempt at suicide. The brother is a hard man and chases down the sister to exact revenge. After kidnapping Alice to his island retreat, we find that the man is attracted to Alice but bent on revenge. Alice herself tries in vain to convince this man she is not the woman who threw the brother over. As they draw closer together, the man and woman must choose which path they will follow.

This plot is probably much more in keeping with the media headlines of the period in which it was written. However, it might make a good movie of the week. Ultimately the man decides he wants Alice for herself no matter what she has done. Then Alice must awaken the woman within to find the tomorrow she deserves.
