The Best Mexican Film ever made, 7 March 1999
10/10
Author: Emmanuel Gómez B. (sururupa@hotmail.com) from Santiago, Dominican Republic

There's no doubt about it, Pedro Almendáris and Dolores del Rio are the most known couple of Mexican actors. They filmed many movies together and gave us some of the best performances that any latin actors would ever give. They in conjunction with Pedro "El Indio" Fernández made this movie the best Latin (or Mexican) film ever done. A love story in times of war and hate, this film get deeply into what the Mexican culture was at the beginning of this century.
