I just saw an earlier version from this movie ( Los novios de mis hijas - 1964 )and the mother is the same actress, Amparo Rivelles, as well as Carlos father, Gen. Avelar, Carlos Lopez Moctezuma. Seems like in the remake ( Los problemas de mama - 1970 ) they kept the major roles to more exprimented actors and changed only the boys and girls. Show of the changing times, is the fact that in the second version, one of the girls is married, and it was not the oldest, which was not usual maybe in the 60s, meaning that if somebody got married skipping the oldest, she would stay single for the rest of her life, so she could take care of her mother. Is very interesting anyway, as a document of how times have changed...

This movie about a mother and her problems for carry on a family of 4 cute daughter who have for idol hers father who die 7 years ago is a typical drama like the films always stars Amparo Rivelles(the minimal thing is approach for made a drama)her 4 daughter have very different personalities as the point you can't believe all are from the same family(one want to be an artist,other is a crazy girl who always find troubles,other one is the cute innocent and the other who was married a paint artist feel nobody understand her)there are 4 guys who plays the boyfriends or husbands of the girls and much of the film goes in boy girl fight all surrounded by a extremely moralist mother who always ask to a paint of her late husband what to do.The roles of the girls are OK,even have fun gags also Joaquin Cordero have a good role as the Leader of the guys,but Rivelles in her usual role of a painful mother destroy a movie who could be better.
