"Asi Se Quiere En Jalisco": Maria Elena Marques stars as Lupe, who is strong-armed by her family into marrying wealthy ranch owner Don Luis. Instead, she offers to work off her family's debts by taking a job as Don Luis' housemaid. Despite the lecherous advances of her employer, Lupe remains faithful to her true love, poor-but-honest Juan Ramon. "Historia De Un Gran Amor": Jorge Ingrate plays Manuel, a poor boy of indeterminate lineage, who falls in love with a wealthy senorita. Told by the girl's father that he isn't a worthy suitor, Manuel vows to make something of himself and return for his love. Years later, a much-richer Manuel rides back into town, only to discover that his sweetheart has married another. But their love is too strong to be impeded by matrimonial bonds, and hero and heroine declare undying devotion to one another. Alas, their romance is foredoomed, thanks to the girl's jealous, short-tempered husband.
