About This Movie
A Made-To-Order Hero is quite the curious piece from 1927, directed by Edgar Lewis. The film has this unique mix of romance and Western tropes that keeps it engaging. Bert Lane's performance as the lovesick hero is both earnest and comical, and you can't help but feel for him as Margery Murray's character is tugged between societal expectations and her genuine feelings. The pacing feels a bit off in spots, but it adds to the charm, almost like you're watching a stage play unfold. The practical effects, while limited by today's standards, have a certain rawness that feels authentic to the era. It’s a delightful exploration of identity and love, albeit with a dose of melodrama that sometimes overshadows the central romance.
Interesting mix of genres for its time.Bert Lane offers a nuanced performance.The depiction of societal pressures is quite relevant.
