Select two cult films to compare side by side.
Jazz Rhythm Synopsis
A parade of various animals leads piano-playing Krazy and his likewise opponent, a Lion, to a large, crowded arena where they square off in the boxing ring to play a musical duel. The Lion has an upright piano, and plays a bit though a fly keeps bothering him. Krazy has a grand piano, and plays a little too, but soon it's between rounds, and all four competitors (the pianos are living creatures also) are exhausted. Then the pianos go at it alone in a punch out, Krazy and the victorious Grand start a spirited playing of "St. Louis Blues", and the Lion and Upright join in as well. All take a bow at the end.
His Royal Slyness Synopsis
An American book salesman (Lloyd) is persuaded to go to the kingdom of Thermosa to impersonate the Prince. He is greeted by a peasants' revolt before the real prince shows up to claim his throne and princess. The revolution succeeds, and the American is elected president of the new republic.
"His Royal Slyness" is currently leading in ratings, making it a stronger choice for newcomers to the genre.
