    Mild

    Ester Exposito plays the same character as in Elite. The end was disappointing.

    mucho sentimiento

    This can only made by Latin American and Spanish cinema. Drama at Francos time. Father agains son. Son against mother. Spanish against Mexican. It's not a movie for people who has no love for Spanish Latin American cinema. It's not Hollywood. It's drama. A drama at a time against the only family. Agains Liberty and agains people who has a different model life. The characters are Black and White. "What is it to wake up every morning and to no you life a live of lie"

    Denali , self-abandonment and recognition.

    Not a memorable series

    I had higher expectations for this series. It was a decent series but it really had all the elements to be an amazing one. It just wasn't. That's why you ended up finishing the series without getting too much from it.

    Good, not great - too short can not be the excuse

    Visually very well and attractively worked out, this drama lacks something in terms of conviction and depth. The dialogues are pretty well portrayed by the actors, but the 'good guys' and 'bad guys' are sometimes portrayed a little too extreme to make it seem realistic. On the other hand, various characters aroused sympathy or irritation in me, so that may not only say something about my sensitivity to it, but also about the quality of this series. Furthermore, you should not forget that it is a Spanish drama. So: don't watch and review drama if you don't feel good about it. Put the lesser ratings of this series into perspective; watch and enjoy as open-minded as possible.

    It has the stamp of Manolo Caro

    A series of 3 chapters that could easily be a film between drama and at the end it turns into a thriller. With the characteristic stamp of Manolo Caro, how was "Amor de mis amores" "I don't know whether to cut my veins or leave them long". Entertaining Quality. Ingenious. It deals with sexual repression, archaic ideologies, oppression, fear of difference, of being carried away by prejudice and gossip, about envy and tantrums. Quality performances. The era well recreated as well as the changing rooms. The only problem is that at times it is very gloomy and suddenly the lighting and makeup do not help Alejandro Speitzer and Cecilia Suárez much. The interesting thing is that the trailer sells you one thing and surprise, another appears.
