Lassie Come Home is a classic for all the usual reasons: its timeless, universal appeal, its first-of-its-kind status, and its exceptional cinematography, direction, and performances. What makes this 1943 charmer especially fun for grownups who haven't screened it since their own preteen, pet-obsessed days, though, is a couple of cute-as-a-button cast members. An adorably over-earnest Roddy McDowall stars as Joe, the mostly hapless lad whom Lassie refuses to part with despite his down-and-out family's decision to sell her, for a paltry 15 guineas, to a wealthy duke; and Elizabeth Taylor, already stunning at around age 10, surrenders a sweet if mawkish performance as Priscilla, the Duke's tenderhearted granddaughter, who lends a hand in Lassie's escape from her family's unkind...

Doug was at his Peak in this silent version of "The Mark of Zorro". Fairbanks provides the audience with an electrifying performance as Zorro, and from it, very few people would guess that it was his first venture into the swashbuckling genre, as his swordplay seems as assured as in his later films. Fairbanks is also excellent as Don Diego, drawing upon his experience in comedy to bring us a vivid portrait of a not so vivid man. Noah Beery gives a delightfully over-the-top performance as the bombastic yet bumbling Sergeant Gonzales. Robert McKim is splendid as the real villain of the film, Captain Ramon, and the final fight with Don Diego/Zorro is a pleasure to look at. Marguerite de la Motte is well cast as the frail and gentle Lolita Pulido.

Buster Keaton revisits his familiar persona of a spoiled society dandy thrown into the surreal world. Young millionaire Rollo Treadway (the sap in the family tree, according to a title card) embarks on a long voyage to nurse his broken heart when his lady love, Kathryn McGuire, turns down his proposal of marriage. Of course he winds up on the wrong dock and boards a derelict ship, which (as luck would have it) McGuire has also boarded. Foreign spies set the ship adrift on the high seas, stranding the pampered heirs, who must now fend for themselves. Keaton indulges in his love of Rube Goldberg contraptions with an elaborate jungle of levers and hatches that turns a giant galley into a veritable automat and dives into 20th-century technology when he dons a diving suit for a hilarious...
