A Mocidade de Lincoln
Director
Nova Salem, Illinois, 1832.

Stuart abre um escritório de advocacia. Lincoln conhece Mary Todd, uma mulher do Kentucky que, ao contrário de Lincoln, era rica. É focado o primeiro caso de Lincoln, no qual primeiramente impede que Matt Clay e Adam Clay sejam linchados por terem assassinado Scrub White. Ambos os irmãos se declaram culpados, como se um protegesse o outro. Abigail Clay, a única pessoa que poderia testemunhar, é a mãe dos acusados e se recusa a dizer algo, pois o testemunho dela salvaria um dos filhos, mas automaticamente condenaria o outro à forca.

Cars chase Bud off the streets and the theatre features movies (Universal Bluebirds at that, a bit of product placement). Ford heightens the contrast by letting us into the hero’s memory, introduced by the title: “Memories of the past flashing back to him”—the earliest reference to the term “flashback” I recall seeing in the movies.

A Study in Scarlet
John H. Watson, M.D.
This is the first of the Sherlock Holmes' stories by the famous English author. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Sherlock Holmes and his friend, Dr. Watson, receives an invitation from Mr. Gregson, of Scotland Yard, to assist in unraveling a murder mystery. Holmes makes a careful study of the case and as a result of his ingenious deductions rounds up the murderer, one Jefferson Hope, a cabman. The man confesses his guilt and tells his life story and of the vengeance of the many wrongs he has suffered at the hands of the dead man in the years gone by. Before the case comes to trial the prisoner dies from heart failure. This is another victory for Holmes and his wonderful deductive methods, as the officers of Scotland Yard had all but fastened the guilt upon another and an innocent person.
