Don Juan (1926) is a Warner Brothers film, directed by Alan Crosland. It was the first feature-length film with synchronized Vitaphone sound effects and musical soundtrack, though it has no spoken dialogue. The production, which premiered in New York City on August 6, 1926, stars John Barrymore as the hand-kissing womanizer (the number of kisses in the film set a record).
If there was one thing that Don Juan de Marana learned from his father Don Jose, it was that women gave you three things - life, disillusionment and death. In his father's case it was his wife, Donna Isobel, and Donna Elvira who supplied the latter. Don Juan settled in Rome after attending the University of Pisa. Rome was run by the tyrannical Borgia family consisting of Caesar, Lucrezia and their evil cousin Count Donati.
Juan has his way with and was pursued by many women, but it is the one that he could not have that haunts him. It will be for her that he suffers the wrath of Borgia for ignoring Lucrezia and then killing Count Donati in a duel. For Adriana, they will both be condemned to death in the prison on the river Tiber.

Plot: Shedding Skin follows the struggles of Jack, a gifted poker player and suicidally depressed young man. Jack is lost. Jack is depressed. Jack tries to kill himself. But for a number of reasons, some clear, some not, he's unsuccessful. In an attempt to cheer him up Jack's two best friends lead him on a drug-addled journey through poker rooms, clubs, house parties and even the courtyard of a local Church, but when that leads nowhere he turns to the advice of two unlikely gurus. Told in a somewhat circular, non-linear fashion meant to mirror Jack's interior life, the film superimposes the philosophy of Albert Camus and Zen Buddhism in the form of the counseling Jack receives from the gurus as he searches for some purpose to define his life. When Jack meets Sera, things seem to be looking up. But just as Jack finally finds a positive outlet for his energy and the film reaches its climax, he begins to question Sera's intentions.
