    I don't mean to be THAT person, but that description is almost entirely wrong. It's the husband who was filmed by the dragonfly's other suitor, and the other suitor exacts revenge on the husband by showing the film while the husband and his wife are at the theater.

      Something like that.... and at the very end, the theater sets fire, leading to the two characters in jail. When the projectionist was away the film was volatile in the unattended projection lighting. . Film stock was a flammable nitrate at the time.
