To Juan Oró, this was about more than his job; he wanted to understand the position Homo sapiens holds in the universe.

 Mexican Film Performers: "C"
Carreño married director Juan Manuel Torres (she had previously been married to producer José Lorenzo Zakany Aldama), who directed her in La otra virginidad (1974), La vida cambia (1975), El mar (1976) and La mujer perfecta (1977).
Torres died in an automobile accident in 1980 and Carreño made few screen appearances afterward (El día de las sirvientas, 1988, is her last to date), and moved to Paris for a number of years.
However, the general downward trend in the industry and de Córdova's advancing age led to a series of lesser roles in the 1960s, and in the late 1960s he suffered a stroke which left his left arm and leg partially paralyzed.

What is strange is that Juan Oro in 1961 was able to get over a billion of these molecules in a single week!!!
Furthermore, some large macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids have a tendency to form self reproducing molecules, and phospholipids tend to form bilipid layers and that is the basis for the formation of simple cells.

There were times during these decades when over 100 films were produced in a year, creating the need to establish production houses for directors and actors, as well as studios, laboratories, and firms for national and international distribution.
La Cadena de Oro (The Golden Chain) and La Compañía Operadora de Teatros (Theatre Company Operations) were the main distributors of films nationally.
It is a classic example of the family melodrama, a genre that would become very popular from the beginning of popular films and that slowly, from the ‘50s, would be disseminated by soap operas that adopted it successfully to television production.
