About Canelita en rama
A rich Andalusian knight, Don Juan, had relations with a gypsy and a daughter. On the death of the mother, Don Juan hosted the girl at home and raised her like a lady, far from the customs and traditions of Roma. Don Juan has another son, this legitimate, who was educated abroad and upon return, unaware of the blood ties which unite them, falls for his sister. The father is opposed to this relationship, but the gypsy relatives discover that the girl is his daughter.
Directed by Eduardo García Maroto, Canelita en rama leans on a strong ensemble — José María Seoane, Juanita Reina, Pastora Imperio — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1943.
