Film vs Film
Select two cult films to compare side by side.
The Mummy and the Humming Bird Synopsis
"The Mummy and the Humming-Bird" recounts the tragedy of a neglected wife who seeks amusement in the company of an unscrupulous Italian novelist whose only object in making love to her is the hope of eventually accomplishing her downfall. The reawakening of the unsuspecting husband, the revenge of which a former victim of the wily schemer wreaks, and the saving of the innocent woman are fraught with thrills and dramatic suspense in abundance. It is the sort of production which can not but impress those who view it. (Hearst's Sunday American, ((Atlanta, Ga.)) 7 November 1915)
The Running Fight Synopsis
Crooked banker Peter V. Wilkinson intentionally drives his own company into bankruptcy and puts the bank's deposits into a secret account he has set up using his daughter Leslie's name. A series of events occurs in which Leslie finds out what her father has done and sets out to get him to return all the money he has stolen.
"The Mummy and the Humming Bird" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Running Fight" offers its own unique cult appeal.
