The Ocean Waif (1916) 83% EDIT “A fairy tale of life, but a highly imaginative and delightful one.” – Los Angeles Times May 24, 2023 Full Review Safety Last (1923) 97% EDIT “As for Lloyd, we always knew he was funny, but we never realized how funny until this one. It isn't only that he does funny stunts; his comedy method Itself is perfect of its own original kind.” – Los Angeles Times Feb 22, 2023 Full Review Main Street (1923) 57% EDIT “There is a good old hokum love story, a good old hokum comedy in Main Street. Don't miss it. ” – Los Angeles Times Jan 26, 2023 Full Review My Four Years in Germany (1918) 95% EDIT “It hasn't any plot; It hasn't any firecracker battle scenes... Yet it's a thrilling war picture all the same -- with a significance so penetrating, action so vital, truthful events so skillfully welded that It holds you breathless.” – Los Angeles Times Nov 16, 2022 Full Review The President's Mystery (1936) 80% EDIT “A splendid job of acting is done by Wilcoxon, who is a star whether called that or not, while Barnett Parker carves a big niche for himself as a comedian in a butler role.” – Los Angeles Times Oct 25, 2022 Full Review The Chalice of Courage (1915) 100% EDIT “[Myrtle Gonzalez] has youth, beauty and temperament, besides a most winning personality, and as this is her first big picture part, it behooves one to notice these things. She gives an excellent portrayal of a young woman of many vicissitudes.” – Los Angeles Times Sep 7, 2022 Full Review The Girl of Lost Lake (1916) 67% EDIT “Myrtle Gonzales is one ingenue who can suffer without remembering all the time that she is pretty and mustn't spoil her face. That's what places her work so far above that of many of her sister ingenues, and makes her at all times pleasing and natural.” – Los Angeles Times Sep 7, 2022 Full Review Southern Justice (1917) 75% EDIT “Southern Justice is a good-natured, entertaining film.” – Los Angeles Times Aug 29, 2022 Full Review The Galley Slave (1915) 86% EDIT “Stuart Holmes, Claire Whitney, Henry Leone and the child wonder, Jane Lee, are all seen in Important roles and the production is in every way a noteworthy one.” – Los Angeles Times Jan 13, 2022 Full Review Salomy Jane (1914) 100% EDIT “It's a great film of the old California days.” – Los Angeles Times Sep 7, 2021 Full Review The Wishing Ring: An Idyll of Old England (1914) 100% EDIT “It is a pretty, Idyllic love story of old England, and sends the patron from the theater with a smile on his face, believing the world is bigger and brighter than he had supposed.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 28, 2021 Full Review The Black Corsair (1944) EDIT “Its story is adventurous and romantic but has no particular novelty.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 8, 2021 Full Review Maria Candelaria (1944) 92% EDIT “No one can gainsay that Miss Del Rio has become a great actress, with all the old posing and artificiality gone, giving place to a genuine power that is at times almost startling.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 8, 2021 Full Review ¡Viva mi desgracia! (1943) EDIT “[A] rip-roaring, knockabout farce.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 2, 2021 Full Review Cuando Lloran los Valientes (1947) EDIT “Acting is good on the part of all, including Pedro Infante, Virginia Serrett, Blanca Estela Ravon, and cute little Joaquinillo Roche.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 2, 2021 Full Review La razón de la culpa (1943) EDIT “Blanca de Castejón plays the wife and is type-perfect.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 2, 2021 Full Review School for Tramps (1955) EDIT “It is very amusing, even though the idea is somewhat blasé.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review Anxiety (1953) EDIT “Infante and Miss Lamarque both give fine performances, with the actor managing the impression of lively youth through his acting, with out overplaying.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review You the Rich (1948) EDIT “The story's bare recital could not give any idea of the really powerful melodrama nor of the vivid characterization and the many excellent: bits of comedy which embellish it.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review Little Black Angels (1948) EDIT “The musical Pedro Infante plays a night club star and thus sings in a variety of picturesque settings, the most alluring being the plush Cuban café.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review La mujer que yo perdí (1949) EDIT “This melodrama gathers emotional impact and reality from [Blanca Estela Pavón's] presence, even in face of the power and skill of Pedro Infante, with whom she appears.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review Over the Waves (1950) EDIT “The picture has brilliant character study in case of the hero, and in spite of some overly sentimental lapses and some infantile comedy relief, its story is absorbing.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review A.T.M. ¡A toda máquina! (1951) EDIT “While Infante does a bit of clowning, he puts his comedy over largely through impish facial expressions, particularly through mischievously laughing eyes; and he really shows himself an adroit funmaker.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review El seminarista (1949) EDIT “Though the subject is a delicate one, it is handled with good taste and much appeal.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review Ahora soy rico (1952) EDIT “The hero's weakness is equaled only by his violence; but though Pedro Infante rages through the picture, he does somehow manage an honest, believable interpretation. Of course between rages he sings some lovely songs.” – Los Angeles Times Jul 1, 2021 Full Review
