Film vs Film
Select two cult films to compare side by side.
The Perfect Flapper Synopsis
Because she is modest and relatively old-fashioned, young debutante Tommie Lou finds herself unpopular at her coming-out party. Resorting to unconventional jazz attitudes, she becomes a great success at the cost of provoking a quarrel and a divorce suit between a married couple. When she falls in love with the wife's lawyer, however, the divorce case is forgotten, and she reforms.
Indiscreet Corinne Synopsis
Bored with her life as the daughter of wealthy parents, Corinne Chilvers answers an ad in the paper for a woman with a lurid past. Hired to secure a declaration of marriage from South American millionaire Nicholas Fenwick, Corinne assumes the identity of a masked dancer to attract Fenwick's attention. Competing with Corinne for Fenwick's affections is Pansy Hartley, a woman who actually does have a shady past. After a series of misadventures, Fenwick falls in love with Corinne, whose parents, scandalized by their daughter's escapades, disown her. Reporting to her employers that Fenwick has proposed to her, Corinne discovers that the young man is not a millionaire, but rather the object of a publicity stunt, which is aborted when Corinne and Fenwick really do get married. Fenwick then approaches Corinne's parents and persuades them to forgive their daughter for her scandalous behavior.
"The Perfect Flapper" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Indiscreet Corinne" offers its own unique cult appeal.
