Por mis pistolas ("For my Pistols") is a 1938 Mexican film dealing with the Mexican Revolution starring Sara García. During the Golden Age of Mexican cinema, -[circa 1935-1960]-, filmmakers often solicited Garcia to play movie roles during those years. However, she interrupted her stage career to appear in only one film between 1918 and 1933. Doña Sara appeared in the film Yo soy tu padre ("I Am Your Father") in 1927. Six years later, however, she returned to the screen full-time in El vuelo de la muerte ("Death Flight") in 1933. She then began a very long career of 148 films. Her first starring role was in the 1936 film Así es la mujer ("That is How a Woman is"); that film was followed by No basta ser madre ("It is Not Enough to be a Mother") (1937), in which her daughter Fernanda also appeared. The two then appeared in Por mis pistolas ("By My Pistols") in 1938 and Papacito lindo ("My Handsome Dad") in 1939.
