Summaries

In Mexico City, rich American Karen Harrison falls in love with famous bullfighter Luis Santos who hides a personal secret regarding his young protégé Rafael Reyes.

Karen Harrison is a spoiled, rich American predator who falls head-over-heels for the brooding, tormented, about-to-retire matador Luis Santos who has inexplicably run away prior to a corrida that was to occasion the "alternativa" of a young, up-and-coming bullfighter. The mystery is solved 94 minutes later, after Karen has conquered Luis and he has saved her life by caping a toro bravo with his plaid horse blanket.—Stanley Conrad <[email protected]>
