I saw this movie on TV some time ago, and I'd like to watch it again. It is quite similar to others produced in Mexico in the 50s, the Rock 'n Roll influence from the USA on the Mexican youth. It shows the Mexico University newer facility as it was, brand new. It doesn't have much for acting; good one liners, some good comedians act here. The fact that makes this film unique, is that Juan García Esquivel (Esquivel!, space pop age band leader) appears here, does some acting, and performs a couple of songs. One of them is the Mexican release of Vereda Tropical, with chorus and his orchestra, which is an indicator of the path that Esquivel would take when he was called by the RCA record company to make recordings for them in stereo. If you never saw Esquivel perform, this might be of interest.
