      Francisco J. Ariza Cine-Mundial The film will be applauded everywhere. [Full review in Spanish] Jan 13, 2021 Full Review Pare Lorentz Vanity Fair Secrets was no treasure of a manuscript, hut it at least had a part written for a fullblown woman, and, as played by Margaret Lawrence quite a few years ago, it offered plenty of room for an actress to he womanly and mature.

      nick s Fictional biopic that follows the wild west adventure of young elopers. It is quite well acted and has enough action to hold the viewers interest. However it does jump ahead in leaps and bounds. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/22/23 Full Review Audience Member pickford's best and last talkie Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Rather unfortunately this was the last film that Mary Pickford ever made, what a sound actress she could have been. This is the story a spoilt southern girl who falls for a man the family doesn't approve and they go off & live together and the film chronicles their hardships & turns into a Western. It's a good film despite the lack of musical score and the scenes where Mary's daughter is shot are simple unforgettable & the despair in her eyes will stay with you. Such a shame this was Mary's last film she was a capable & fantastic actress... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
