Review
In this film, the Mexican rumbera Meche Barba shares credit with the young star of the moment, Silvia Pinal, who plays her younger sister in this melodramatic tale. Meche was known for her way of dancing in imaginary scenarios in Mexican cinema. This is the second film that Barba and Pinal shared credit (the first time was in the film The Sin of Laura (1949), one of the Pinal's first movies).[1][2]
