Select two cult films to compare side by side.
The Girl-Woman Synopsis
Even though she's 17, Belinda is tired of being treated like a small child in the small Southern village where she lives with her father, Judge Lee. Out of frustration, she arranges a "growing-up" party, and makes her appearance dressed "to the nines", in a long, elegant gown with her hair and face all made up. That night an Sanford, an escaped convict, breaks into Judge Lee's home, bent on revenge for the judge having sent him to prison. However, both he and Belinda are in for a big surprise.
The Unknown Quantity Synopsis
Mary Boyne, who made shirts at four dollars a week, had no place for love in her life - only despair and hate for the son of the man who had plunged her family into deepest distress. Peter Kenwitz loved Mary, but because he was a mathematician and a pessimist by trade, his love was as hopeless as her chance for happiness. Dan Kinsolving was the son of the man who ruined Mary's family. He loved Mary and gloried in her hatred for him. He set about moving the problem of turning her hate into love. He let X represent The UNKNOWN QUANTITY in life's greatest problem. Did he win?
"The Girl-Woman" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Unknown Quantity" offers its own unique cult appeal.
