Select two cult films to compare side by side.
Enlighten Thy Daughter Synopsis
A story of the difference in fate of two young girls caused by the difference in their home lives and training. This shows vividly the criminal folly of allowing a girl to reach womanhood without knowledge of certain facts essential to her welfare and happiness. A worse-than-foolish mother keeps her daughter in ignorance. In her efforts to avoid the consequences which follow, she places the girl in the hands of an unscrupulous doctor with whom she is in partnership.
The City of Illusion Synopsis
Claire, a young Southern girl, marries wealthy plantation owner Paul but has always dreamed of moving to and living in New York City. She falls for Paul's New York lawyer Douglas, and when he goes back to "The Big Apple", she fibs to her husband that she had been having an affair with Douglas and wants a divorce. However, when she travels to New York to be with him, she finds that he's already married and is running for District Attorney. Complications ensue.
"Enlighten Thy Daughter" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The City of Illusion" offers its own unique cult appeal.
