About The Love Nest
Amalia, aged, remember when Fernando Mendoza, his former medical school, came to San Esteban, the town where she lived. They worked together and became his love. Although he was engaged to another, Fernando decided to return to the city to complete his commitment to her and finally reunited with Amalia, but the facts do not happen as they had planned.
Directed by Roberto Gavaldón, The Love Nest leans on a strong ensemble — Dolores del Río, Roberto Cañedo, Domingo Soler — 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 drama titles of 1950.
