The famous story of the rugby team whose plane crashes in the Andes is exploited in this lurid drama that focuses on the fact that the young men were forced to eat their dead companions to survive. For a much more engrossing, sensitive and suspenseful rendering of the true story, watch the 1992 version Alive. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

This conventional melodrama and police story combined, focuses on the tale of three sisters who are triplets in actuality but have been separated and are not aware of their relationship. Fate brings them together when they are caught in a scam, victims of ruthless criminals who prey on young women in the performing arts or wherever physical attractiveness is in the job description. Once the women come into contact with each other they discover their relationship and help the police in nabbing the culprits who were preying on them, and others. The sisters are played by Rosita Arenas (of the "Látigo Negro" movies), Luz María Aguilar, and Marina Camacho. Co-scripter Roberto Rodríguez is most known for his production company, and as a pioneer of Mexican talkies, thanks to his invention of a breakthrough sound recording system. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Although the definition of risqué in Mexico is far below French standards, after all, "risqué" is a universally recognized French term, this musical-sexual-religious drama is considered to be in that category by Mexican standards. The story centers on the titillating exploits of a beautiful, seductive, "she-devil" (Luz María Aguilar) who is evil enough to ruin those who get involved with her. But all is not totally lost. By the end of the film when she has wreaked enough destruction, she is transformed by a sacred image in a church and conversion is imminent. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Following the same pattern as the series of Cantinflas films, this routine Mexican comedy stars the country's other top-billed comic, Tin-Tan. He falls a little short of convincing in his take-off on a down-and-out storyteller who struggles to eke out a living on a daily basis. As in other Mexican films of this type the comedy arises from the fixes the storyteller gets into as he goes about his business, some of the situations are as threatening to his well-being as they are funny, yet once again, this time-worn formula runs a little thin here. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

A standard Mexican melodrama, Que Bonito Amor features two popular Latino actors, Lola Beltran and Antonio Aguilar as a couple whose version of marriage includes a serious competition for first place in the domestic arena. When they reverently approach the altar in their wedding ceremony, all goes well and normally until the priest asks the bride if she will honor and ~obey~ her husband -- and that ticks her off. Her reaction elicits an equal and opposite reaction from her groom, and that sequence sets the stage for their life together as newlyweds. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
