Film vs Film
Select two cult films to compare side by side.
Savitri Satyavan Synopsis
India's first international co-production. The love-is-stronger-than-death story sees Savitri, the daughter of King Ashwapati and a goddess, fall for Satyavan who is destined to die within a year. He is killed by a tree and his soul is gathered by the god Yama but he returns to life and there is a happy ending for the lovers. Some nudity and other 'erotic' images were removed to satisfy the censors.
The Night Riders Synopsis
In Alberta, Canada, a Cornish emigrant unmasks a rustler posing as the girl's "blind" father.
"Savitri Satyavan" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Night Riders" offers its own unique cult appeal.
