description: Dancing Into His Heart - A prima ballerina in London finds that her lover and costar is cheating on her and decides to throw it all in and apply to be a mail order bride in America. She meets a lower class woman in the mail order bride office and they form a fast and permanent bond as they both start a new life in the west.
  Lonely Crippled Thomas & His Surprise Mail Order Bride - Thomas lives virtually alone in his house in Pennsylvania with only his cousin to look after him. His legs were damaged in a railway accident and the only way he can get around his house is by crawling, or by means of an awkward chaise lounge and prototype wheelchair that his cousin pushes. He loses his faith and reads only controversial books, and his neighbors begin to despise him.
