Film vs Film
Select two cult films to compare side by side.
Prisoners Synopsis
Austrian cabaret dancer Riza Rigi (Corinne Griffith) is not above a bit of petty thievery once in a while, and she steals to attract the attention of Nicholas Cathy (Ian Keith), a young lawyer she is in love with, who unsuccessfully defends her in court and she is, alas, sent to jail. But she also stole his heart, and he is waiting for her when she is released from jail.
Why Divorce? Synopsis
A young couple quarrel and make-up and quarrel again and it is here where they determine to save the scandal of divorce by placing a white tape through the house to divide it into two parts, each section of which will be exclusively sacred to the other. In the meantime, an almost invisible Cupid hovers about trying to placate them and a little Mephisto with a pitchfork tries to prod the couple along to more troubles.
"Prisoners" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Why Divorce?" offers its own unique cult appeal.
