The Mark of Zorro (1920)

Here's the picture in which the world's greatest exponent of good cheer and humor gives you a genuine riot of fun and thrills-pep and action-comedy-love-guaranteeing to drive away all your blues.

Don Diego Vega pretends to be an indolent fop as a cover for his true identity, the masked avenger Zorro. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2012.
