    Desc: The Triumph of Venus: Directed by Edwin Bower Hesser. With Betty Lee, Phyllis Beveridge, William Sherwood, Hassan Mussalli. Angry with Venus for rejecting his love, Jove gives the beautiful goddess of love to the ugly blacksmith Vulcan. Venus escapes, but Vulcan, seeing her with Mars, entangles them in his magic net, much to the delight of the jeering gods. Apollo releases them, and Venus takes refuge on the island of Milo, where she falls in love with a young sculptor. Venus bears the sculptor a daughter named Nea, but soon afterward, when he sees Diana bathing in a stream, she kills him. Nea grows into a lovely young woman and falls in love with Pannas, a fisherman, but Diana, who also loves Pannas, imprisons the girl in a rock. Cupid releases her, but the two are forced to undergo several more ordeals before Venus intercedes with Jove on their behalf. His anger now turned toward Diana, Jove forces her to hand the lovers the cup of immortality while the radiant Venus looks on.
