DVD Review: Sometimes we think that (hic) la vida no vale nada. (salud!)
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of Pedro Infante's last movies, done during the decline of the Mexican golden era. I believe it was underrated then and very much misunderstood, probably because all the attention was on the new cinemascope and stereo sound novelty that was just starting. In the middle 50's everybody were used to see all the great actors of the time (Pedro, Jorge, Cantinflas, Tin Tan etc.and a lot more from Hollywood and all over the world) being funnier and/or more likeable when they were (acting) drunk. Maybe that's why this movie didn't succed in trying to bring up a message, exposing what can do to some people an uncontrolable disease. The most notables in the cast of this three episodes story, are beautiful Charito Granados, who plays a hard to get delightful widow, and Lilia Prado who is as sensuous as ever. Pedro Infante was miscast as a young lad, but his acting makes you forget this, the same case is Domingo Soler in his role. The nostalgic and soulful theme song was written off course by the unforgetable Jose Alfredo Jimenez, who was and died (or so they say) an alcoholic. And if it is not enough, there are other songs by Tomas Mendes and Cuco Sanchez, and all this music goes just great with the movie. I'll like to recomend the DVD (finally). They did a good restoration, even tho they probably used different masters to acomplish this, because the quality changes on some reels. Anyway is a lot better than tape, and also comes with well translated subtitles in English, in case you need them, even the songs are translated (something that should 've been done in the recent movie "Frida").
