Select two cult films to compare side by side.
The Discontented Canary Synopsis
A canary is frustrated by being caged, particularly with a parrot taunting him when the human owner isn't watching. One day, he tricks the kind old lady into opening the window, and she also neglects to close the door to his cage. Freedom. But it's not all it's cracked up to be; the other birds are either cuckoos (one complete with Napoleon hat and mannerisms) or shun him, the rain comes and there's no shelter, and a cat is skulking around. After a series of narrow escapes, the canary is more than happy to dash home to the nice warm fire.
A Fitting Gift Synopsis
The Judge needs a present for his wife's birthday, so Harry suggests a new corset. They go to the shop, but he's so embarrassed to ask the saleslady he hides in a phone booth.Harry goes in, but finds a GUY wearing one, and runs out.They both dress as women to get back in, but Mrs. Rummy gets there and chases him out.
"The Discontented Canary" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Fitting Gift" offers its own unique cult appeal.
