good back-story, and good acting

A Brilliant Conflict

I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Very entertaining. Good to learn Spanish. Great acting. I like the vibes eventhough they are predictable as in Las Chicas del Cable & Gran Hotel. Bring on season 2 please. I wanna see 3 weddings;)

I love watching new and unique movies without cutting and I love them on your site because you publish every new and distinguished thank you for your efforts

Pro's: The characters are appealing. The story line is interesting. For the most part, the acting is pretty good. This isn't a deep, serious watch- even considering the subject matter. This was a historical situation I wasn't aware of, so I always appreciate cinema that spurs me on to learn more about what was going on. Con's: I would say the "getting together-breaking apart" aspect of the love story between Julia and Fidel got to comic proportions by the end.In fact, that seemed to be a common theme with ALL the romantic plot lines in the series and it was getting tiresome. That said, I hope there is a season 2. :)

Somebody went into raptures about this telenovela dealing with "Embracing other cultures ... Interracial relationships ... Interfaith relationships ..."Oh, of course. We must have interracial/interfaith relationships and embrace other cultures at any cost. Or else ...Sorry. I simply cannot resist the temptation to tweak knee-jerk political correctness.On to the series. I've only just started to watch it and, so far, so good. I like Amaia Salamanca and Jose Sacristan, whom I have seen in Grand Hotel and Velvet. I know nothing about the Rif War so I can't say how historically accurate this is. But ... I take it for what it is: a telenovela. Not a history lesson.I usually enjoy Spanish telenovelas. I hope this won't 't dissapoint me. So far my only objection is to the color of blood in otherwise very realistic hospital scenes. It's raspberry colr, which is rather distracting. But if that's the only flaw this is going to be good.
