About México de mis recuerdos
After listening to the waltz "Carmelita", dedicated to his wife, President Diaz instructs Don Susanito seeking the composer Chucho Flores to give her a piano. Don Susanito located Chucho, a bohemian who lives drunk and surrounded by poets and artists. Don Susanito was named patron protector of artists and aspiring young stars of the stage, which leads to a series of adventures in the middle of songs, dances and loves.
Directed by Juan Bustillo Oro, México de mis recuerdos leans on a strong ensemble — Fernando Soler, Sofía Álvarez, Joaquín Pardavé — 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 1944.
