Reviews

The film premiered in four rooms of Mexico City in 1951. The journalist Mauricio Peña related in his analysis of this film for the magazine Somos in 1999: We assure you that is not easy to recover after seeing María Antonieta Pons in "Maria Cristina", because even the conventional story, is the absolute pinnacle of the art of this beautiful Cuban rumbera.[1]

gollark: I'm sure we'll run out *somehow*.
gollark: ANYTHING BUT NAT
gollark: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
