Quinn plays a sort of Mexican Zorba the Greek but one who evokes neither sympathy nor humor as he tries to keep his phalanx of children together in a slum area. Mere survival is the only goal in this grim tale that is both depressing and boring. The only fascinating thing about this waste
of time is the ageless beauty of del Rio, a star for fifty years.
