Padre a la Fuerza
Synopsis
No further information survives about this comedy starring a character typical of costumbrista comedies: "a streetwise fellow with all the trappings of a true Creole, who manages to get a house, food, and a wife," according to the advertising description. Derteano's third film, after *Cosas de la vida* and *Corazón de criollo*, *Padre a la fuerza* featured inexperienced actors or supporting performers, such as Miguel Márquez, who were promoted to leading roles. The film performed poorly commercially, which negatively impacted the fate of the production company Cosmos and director Derteano. No copy of the film survives.
