Select two cult films to compare side by side.
Madame Peacock Synopsis
Jane Goring, a ruthlessly ambitious actress, forsakes her life as a wife and mother for the stage. Returning home from a performance one night, Jane is disgusted to find her husband Robert McNaughton victimized by a tubercular cough and so banishes him and her young daughter to a sanitarium in Colorado. Years pass, finding Jane still estranged from her family. On the opening night of her new play, Jane finds herself upstaged and outperformed by Gloria Cromwell, a rising young actress, who, unknown to Jane, is her abandoned daughter. Returning home, Jane is haunted by visions of her husband and child and begins to sob. Looking up from her pillow, she is startled to see her husband with Gloria. Discovering that the girl is actually her daughter, Jane realizes the error of her ways, and the family is reconciled.
The Night Riders Synopsis
In Alberta, Canada, a Cornish emigrant unmasks a rustler posing as the girl's "blind" father.
"Madame Peacock" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Night Riders" offers its own unique cult appeal.
