Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
1950s Argentine cinema loved exposing bourgeois hypocrisy; this was Amadori's specialty as former tango lyricist turned moral provocateur.
Zully Moreno was Argentina's biggest star but made this during her commercial decline; her raw performance suggests she knew exactly what losing status felt like.
