About Saverio, el cruel
Saverio is an insurance broker who arrives in a small town after receiving a letter from a potential client requesting insurance for "special affections." Upon arriving at the mansion, Saverio is captivated by the beauty of Susana, the granddaughter and heiress to a vast fortune—beautiful, refined, and cultured. What Saverio doesn't suspect is that he will become the victim of a macabre plot, in which he plays a crucial role. Susana, in collusion with her family and friends, will feign madness with the sole purpose of making Saverio fall at her feet.
Directed by Ricardo Wullicher, Saverio, el cruel leans on a strong ensemble — Alfredo Alcón, Graciela Borges, Diana Ingro — 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 1977.
