Thanks so much for sharing this. Does anybody happen to know the name of the short story by Luis Spota which this film is based on? There are references to it online, but no mention of a title,

I like this movie. It ain't up to MACARIO (1960, 10/10) and LA OLTRE (I think 1956 and also 10/10), but it's still a very good one to watch (7/10). Great cinematography again. I esp. like the ending (he gets what he deserves) and the very last scenes with the dog and the trash-scene show very clearly what director Gavaldón thinks about his main character. Well done!

In reply to Noel. They just showed a bunch of these restorations at the Academy museum in Los Angeles, Autumn Days was a stand out for me after of course Macario, but this one I really like as well.

In reply to Noel.

You’re very welcome, Noel, they really are beautiful.
I have a copy of “In the Palm of Your Hand” but it’s just DVD quality not restored like this one, looks like it has been restored MOMA showed it couple years back but there’s no copy of it online unfortunately, maybe it will show up at some point or be released on Bluray in Mexico.

Thank you so much for posting this, these Gavaldon restorations are really beautiful. Do you plan on posting more Gavaldon, like En La Palma De Tu Mano? Thanks again
