A locomotive, some lovers, and Fernando Soler being magnificently insufferable. Mexican golden age chaos.
Acting
Fernando Soler's domineering patriarch steals every scene he's in.
Production
Genuine locomotive sequences that probably endangered the entire cast.
Director
Gabriel Soria
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of Mexico's 'Cine de Ferrocarriles' subgenre celebrating rail expansion as national identity. The train isn't just setting—it's protagonist.
Soler and de Córdova would reunite in 1943's 'El peñón de las ánimas,' proving their antagonistic chemistry was box office gold.
