Film vs Film
Select two cult films to compare side by side.
In the Movies Synopsis
Snub writes a scenario and goes to the local theater to see the picture. After a good deal of trouble he and his wife succeed in getting into the house, but are unable to find two seats together. The center aisle is built very steep, and the ushers are dressed like Alpine climbers. This provides a great deal of action for those who must climb up, and those who slide into their seats. Then comes the film. The main title tells that the picture is made by the "Shameless Film Co." As Snub's seat is up against the screen he sees the picture greatly distorted. The picture shown on the screen satires the current melodrama, and will bring a laugh in itself. The comedy ends in a free-for-all fight.
One Night Only Synopsis
Misadventures of a traveling company of actors performing for one night in a small town. When the troupe's leading lady deserts the show for a better paying job as a waitress, a young woman from the town gets the role for one night.
"In the Movies" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "One Night Only" offers its own unique cult appeal.
