Amazing Soap Opera!

This was by far the best interpretation of Regina Duarte, best Brazilian soap opera actress of all times. Her acting together with that of Lima Duarte, another monster, is superb! I think this was also the biggest hit on prime time in Brazil. Reaching almost 100 % audience, it was a remarkable success.

Also amazingly important was the casting. Names such as Denis Carvalho, Armando Bogus, Othon Bastos and Claudio Cavalcante starred this incredible series. Directed by Gonzaga Blota and Jayme Monjardim, this was one of those programs never to be forgotten!
