Maravillosa película, es genial como lentamente te va atrapando hasta que llega el momento del clímax, toca muchos temas complejos como los lazos familiares, la ambición, la homosexualidad oculta, porque es evidente que el protagonista tenía algo con su amigo, pero en esa época una relación homosexual era inaceptable, al final todo se resume en apariencias, desde la cuñada que solo piensa en dinero, el hermano que siempre se esfuerza de más por llamar la atención de su padre y tener su aprobación en todo, sin voluntad, sin criterio propio, solo vive para complacer a su progenitor, una madre devota que da demasiado sin recibir mucho, un padre implacable que se dedicó tanto a hacer dinero y olvidó las necesidades de su familia (emocionales) amor y apoyo, una mujer que sufre por un marido ausente, un marido que tiene que compartir con un tercero, es evidente que lo ama, pero también ama la comodidad que tiene al ser una miembro de esa familia tan acaudalada, por eso soporta tantas cosas y por último tenemos al protagonista, un hombre que vive atormentado por la perdida de su querido "amigo" y por la culpa de haber ignorado su llamado de auxilio, sintiendo asco por la vida en la que vive y refugiándose en el alcohol para olvidar, en fin, esta película es una perfecta definición de "Los ricos también lloran".

Wonderful movie, it's great how it slowly catches you until the moment of the climax, it touches on many complex issues such as family ties, ambition, hidden homosexuality, because it's evident that the protagonist had something with his friend, but at that time a homosexual relationship was unacceptable, in the end everything boils down to appearances, from the sister-in-law who only thinks about money, the brother who always tries harder to get his father's attention and have his approval in everything, without will, without criteria own, lives only to please his father, a devoted mother who gives too much without receiving much, a ruthless father who was so dedicated to making money that he forgot his family's needs (emotional) love and support, a woman suffering from a an absent husband, a husband who has to share with a third party, it is evident that she loves him, but she also loves the comfort that comes from being a member of that wealthy family, that is why she puts up with so many things and finally we have the protagonist, a man who lives tormented by the loss of his dear "friend" and by the guilt of having ignored his call for help, feeling disgust for the life in which he lives and taking refuge in alcohol to forget, in short, this film is a perfect definition from "The rich also cry".
