<P> When Elizabeth's abusive mother died, she befriended Dan Leno and fell in with his music - hall troupe, performing bawdy comic songs while dressed as a man . Her act quickly becomes second in popularity only to Leno himself, but she aspires to also become a dramatic actor . John Cree, a struggling playwright, begins trying to woo her, offering her a leading part in his new play . She does not respond to his advances but her fellow performer, Aveline Ortega (María Valverde), becomes jealous and sabotages her first dramatic role . </P> <P> Elizabeth is entrapped by the theatre's owner, a man known as' Uncle' (Eddie Marsan), and is forced to pose nude for photographs and to beat him for his sexual gratification . She tells John, who offers to marry her and keep her safe . Elizabeth accepts, and Kildare notes that Uncle died suddenly only days later, leaving the theatre to Dan Leno . John's career stalls, and he grows bitter towards Elizabeth, who supports him financially, eventually beginning an affair with Aveline and suspending work on' ' Misery Junction' ' to spite Elizabeth . The two remained estranged until John Cree's poisoning . </P> <P> Kildare finally finds a handwritten copy of the play written by Cree before his death on the day that Elizabeth is to be hanged . He gets an hour's postponement to her sentence, hoping that revealing John Cree's crimes will cause her sentence to be commuted . However, after speaking with Elizabeth, Kildare realizes that she is the true Golem rather than her husband . She killed' Uncle', and then began committing murders as the Golem to make a lasting name for herself, poisoning her husband when he found evidence of her crimes . </P> <P> Broken at this revelation, Kildare delays announcing the revelation that Cree was the Golem to the press until after Elizabeth is hanged, granting her the' fame' of eliminating the Golem rather than the greater fame of being a killer . In the final scene, Dan Leno's troupe perform John's play, rewritten to tell Elizabeth's life story, but Aveline Ortega, playing the part of Elizabeth, dies accidentally during the hanging scene . Leno covers up the death and takes the curtain call dressed as Elizabeth, and we see Elizabeth take a bow on stage with him, using Leno's catchphrase: "Here we are again!" </P>
