The second part of a masterpiece...

It's clear that the person comenting this movie is a descendant of El Torito because she only talks of him but nothing of this movie.

This is clearly a diptic and here is the other side of the coin: When the poor were victims of the same poor, now with maniqueism, they faced the social power of the rich, specially in Chachita's will were she'll have to choose between the two worlds of love and money. And everyone knows what happens...

This condescendant vision has increased the tragedy and violence of its predecessor but also its mark in people's mind. Totally unforgetable...

To whom are you referring in your post, Mariana, when you says It's clear that the person comenting this movie is a descendant of El Torito because she only talks of him but nothing of this movie.

I don't get it.

About the movie. I am agree, this is the second part, a wonderful sequel BTW, from the most important and influential trilogy ever made in México ("Nosotros los pobres", "Ustedes los ricos" and "Pepe el Toro").

Unforgettable movies as you've already said. Thank you don Ismael!
