Cuando Canta el Corazon (When the Heart Sings) was directed by Richard Harlan, an American-born helmsman then living and working in Argentina. Singing sensation Hugo del Carril stars as a wealthy young wastrel who's confined to his family hacienda by his frugal papa. After a years' worth of servitude as a farmhand, our hero heads back to the Big City in hopes of rekindling his romance with a beautiful nightclub singer. He marries the girl without his parent's consent, and joins her travelling show-business troupe, cheerfully experiencing all manner of deprivations so long as he can be with the woman he loves. Del Carril is reconciled with his mother and father on the occasion of the baptism of his first-born son (they thought they'd been invited to his wedding!)
