The Smile of the Virgin (1958) aka: La Sonrisa de la Virgen

[Image]


Marita, a charming little girl, lives in the country with her grandmother. Her best friend is a modest servant, Anselmo, who almost everyday takes the girl to visit the church known as "Guadalupe's Basilica", an important temple in Mexico City, where she discovers Virgin Guadalupe and the legend about her apparitions in that place. Marita doesn't behave properly in school, and her teacher always has a punishment for the girl. She doesn't like school, and she doesn't want to return to school anymore. Besides, Marita's worried about her animals, like a cow, who doesn't produce milk. The girl asks for many miracles of Virgin Guadalupe, one of them is not going to school. During a visit to Basilica, Marita hears the Virgin's voice, and this could be the beginning of a responsible life for the girl, like to study and to be a good child.

WOW!!!

This looks like a great find!! Many thanks starfish! (If people have followed my [REL]'es through the years, they would note that I have a particular fondness for Hispanic films. )

I love the re-edited sequence of these pix:

Yes, jpf, I found that Amazon link the first day that starfish posted this movie, and [as I've said] having an extreme fondness for Spanish films [but not speaking Spanish] I immediately ordered the DVD.

It arrived last Friday, and I've worked over the weekend editing and tweaking the subs and I think they are ready..

I have them set to 'Powershare', so hopefully they load fast. Knowing I was getting the DVD I never d/loaded starfish's original file, so I don't know if these subs fit. BUT; I've gone ahead and given them the same name in hopes they do.

If the subs don't match, I can go ahead and make a rip from my DVD...

(Fingers crossed... )

Many thanks, again, starfish for bringing this lovely little film to FLM!

kev.

your rip would make a good upgrade.

Well.. Being somewhat lazy, I was hoping not to deal with making a rip, but after you suggested it I decided to, JUST to see if it would really be an 'upgrade'.. (After making my last post I started d/loading your link to see if the subs would fit..)

Checking the two files side by side, I found there IS a good bit of difference in sharpness. Unfortunately I don't know how to tweak the file like some folks here so what I've arrived at is a straight forward AGK rip from the VOB files...

Film and subs should mesh with no problems...

Thanks again starfish for bringing this here in the first place. I love these movies and am excited to now have this a part of my collection. I can't thank you enough!!

My new [since July of 2014] PC crapped out on me a month or so ago and I'm having trouble getting my laptop to connect to ed2k. Hopefully someone that picked these up when I [REL]'ed these files can help out.
