User Reviews

Lost film contained one of Valentino's early performances

Valentino had a walk on in the 1917 ALMONY, which is lost. All of his three 1918 films exist, but four out of his seven 1919 films are lost. This film starring Dorothy Gish is one of those lost films. Its value is doubly enhanced by having both Gish and Valentino, two of film's name stars, present in the same production. Valentino is billed as Rodolph Valentine.
