Where have all the good movies gone?, 24 September 2005
9/10
Author: valdezlopez (valdezlopez@hotmail.com) from Monterrey, Mexico

It's rather joyful, sad, interesting and shameful to see that a movie made more than 50 years ago (in 1951) is much more appealing to see (and to see it all the way through) than those made within this year or for the past 5 years here in México.

I'm generalizing. True. But this kind of productions seem to be made with almost no effort (or budget) and still capture the attention of viewers.

Maybe because it stars two of the most sought of stars in those years: Pedro Infante and Luis Aguilar.

Maybe because Ismael Rodríguez directed it (one of the most prolific Mexican directors).

The movie sways through almost unbelievable coincidences and situations, but its two main actors charm saves whatever fault the script may have.

I'm beginning to realize I enjoy more and more old "Golden Age" Mexican movies. Like "Macario", or "Dos tipos de cuidado" (with Infante too), or "El rebozo de soledad", or the worldly acclaimed "Los olvidados" (by Luis Buñuel). It's just those types of movies you can rely on to have good heavy well rounded movie experiences.
