Životopis
Najpoznatiji filmovi su mu The Sheik i The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse . Poznat je po nadimku "Latinski ljubavnik", kojeg je stekao kao jedna od najpoznatijih filmskih zvijezda 1920-ih godina i jedna od najvećih ličnosti ere nijemog filma. Valentinova smrt u dobi od 31 godinu izazvala je dotada nezapamćenu masovnu histeriju među obožavataljicama, pretvorivši ga u jednu prvih ikona Hollywooda.
