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 a melodramatic ending. The film was vetoed by the now defunct League of The Decency.[1] The great photography of Agustín Martínez Solares stands out and gives a touch of Film noir with the singer Antonio Aguilar as a sort of Mexican Victor Mature who gives a tremendous beating to the villain Miguel Torruco.[2]
