Select two cult films to compare side by side.
The Gaucho Synopsis
A girl is saved by a miracle after she falls from a cliff in the Argentine Andes, and is blessed with healing powers. A shrine is built on the site, and a whole city grows around it, rich with gold from the grateful worshipers. Ruiz, an evil and sadistic general, captures the city, confiscates the gold, and closes the shrine. But the Gaucho, the charismatic leader of a band of outlaws, comes to the rescue.
Why Beaches Are Popular Synopsis
This short was a promo piece for Mack Sennett's Yankee Doodle in Berlin (1919), with many of the same characters in addition to the Mack Sennett Bathing Beauties.
"The Gaucho" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Why Beaches Are Popular" offers its own unique cult appeal.
