If I Should Die Before I Wake 1952 ( 6.6)

While playing a prank, a young boy accidentally discovers the identity of a criminal lurking in the neighborhood.

Harassed 1964 ( 5)

An attractive songstress (Libertad Leblanc) lands herself a performing contract and leaves her home in Buenos Aires. She travels to Venezuela, and when arriving in Caracas, she soon discovers that her contract is a hoax made by a major drug baron. She finds that she is knee-deep in trouble herself and must be careful if she is to get out of her predicament in one piece. When imported to the U.S., the film was dubbed into English, new footage (shot in New York City) was added and it was given the memorably salacious title The Pink Pussy: Where Sin Lives.

The Yacht Isabel Arrived This Afternoon 1950 ( 5.7)

The captain of a small vessel, regularly sailing between his home island of Margarita Island in the Caribbean and the Venezuelan mainland, has two separate and very different relationships. At home, he is happily married, having named his boat Isabel after his wife. Yet on his visits to the port of La Guaira, he has a passionate affair with Esperanza, a woman working in a seedy cabaret who tries to retain him with hexes and spells. A classic of Latin American cinema, which won Best Cinematography at 1951 Cannes Film Festival.
