It sure doesn't do this film justice. Is there another version available?! As someone who has only now discovered Pedro Infante, I found this film his most provocative. You've got to respect Pedro's portrayal of an alcoholic at war with himself, so upbeat when he's sober, and so totally anarchic with a few drinks. The family/work ethos attracts and repels him, and each "good" situation becomes claustrophobic. The cantina is full of like souls, only Pedro sings better than the rest of 'em, and doesn't find his way back home. Or does he? The film raises this question. I hope someone will track down good 35mm elements and restore La Vida No Vale Nada for real!
