Reviews
In this film Meche Barba does not appear naked as the title suggests, but she was painted gold, and then dressed in expensive fur coats in a gruesome story with melodramatic ending. The film was vetoed by the now defunct League of The Decency.[1] Highlights the great photograph of Agustín Martínez Solares that gives a touch of Film noir with the singer Antonio Aguilar as a sort of Mexican Victor Mature who just handing him tremendous beating to the villain Miguel Torruco.[2]
