First off, I beg to differ with the Plot Summary. Isabel didn't merely "learn that Pablo went off to join the Foreign Legion", she was with him when he made the decision to depart and promised to wait for him 'forever'. When Rafael shows up in Spain to buy some bulls and re-acquaint himself with Isabel (whom he's always loved since they were children), he learns that Pablo and Isabel are engaged, and that Pablo has gone off to the Foreign Legion to 'save his family honour'.
Isabel does not "beg Rafael to bring Pablo back", instead, Rafael realizes that he and Isabel can never be happy together unless he brings Pablo back at which time Isabel can choose between them. He discusses his plan with her in a very elegant and well-spoken monologue after he realizes that she loves him too.
Yes, there are some plot holes - but they are relatively minor.
This is an outstanding story of deep, lifelong love and devotion, promises hard-to-keep made and kept through thick and thin. I would have given 10 out of 10 but for a few 'errors' - the Legionaires speaking Spanish instead of French for instance - but I didn't really mind that so much as I grew up in Mexico myself.
A wonderful early attempt by a blossoming Mexican film industry.
