Film vs Film
Select two cult films to compare side by side.
A Ladies Man Synopsis
An aristocratic society couple adopt a foundling of unknown parentage. At the age of ten, however, the unknown foundling heard the call of worldly adventure and ran away from the luxurious home of his wealthy foster-parents. As the story opens, the prodigal son, whose given name is "Little Oswald," returns to Home and Mother - not as the handsome and romantic type as visualized by the society belles assembled to pay homage, but as - well, Bull Montana, with cauliflower ears, a checkered suit, a derby lid, a big black cigar - and two of the finest "hard boiled pals" that ever traversed the underworld.
An Amateur Devil Synopsis
Carver Endicott, a young sophisticate, is rejected by his fiancée for being too foppish and dull. When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
"A Ladies Man" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
