Select two cult films to compare side by side.
She Had to Say Yes Synopsis
In the depth of the Depression, Sol Glass has the idea that the girls in the stenographic department should be used to entertain the clients. It seems that the clients are tiring of the regular hard-and-fast women, and this would be a change that would allow the girls to go out to dinners and see shows. Tom does not want his fiancée Flo, to go out with clients--until he needs her to close a contract with Daniel. After that, she finds that Tom is two-timing her with Birdie, so she goes out again with Daniel. Everything is going well for a time until Daniel needs her to close a contract with Haines.
Blackmail Synopsis
Confidence artist Flossie Golden attempts to fleece foolish but wealthy James Venable with a breach-of-promise suit. Venable's shrewd attorney, Richard Harding, outwits Flossie by proposing that she marry Venable and live on an allowance of $3,000 per year. Flossie is determined to get even with Harding for ruining her plans. In an attempt to con him, she poses as Innocence Page, but falls in love and marries him instead. Larry, Flossie's former accomplice, endeavors to blackmail her with her errant past, but Harding is already cognizant of the facts and Larry fails.
"She Had to Say Yes" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
