Trivia
There is a version of "Cuna de lobos" produced in Spain (2002), called "La Verdad de Laura", with Mónica Estarreado, Mariano Alameda and Mirtha Ibarra.
"The best telenovela of the year", TVyNovelas award, 1987.
Catalina Larios, widow of Carlos Larios, the head of the international pharmaceuticals giant Lar Creel poisoned and killed her husband to gain control of his empire, but was betrayed in his will when he left it to whichever son - Alejandro (Alejandro Camacho) or Jose Carlos (Gonzalo Vega) - produced a son and heir first. Alejandro's wife Vilma (Rebeca Jones) was infertile so he wooed and secretly married (or she thought he did) Leonora Navarro (Diana Bracho) and got her pregnant. When the son - Edgar - was born, Alejandro revealed his true colours and told Leonora the marriage was a sham, and took the baby and passed it off as his and Vilma's. Leonora then planned revenge - she married Jose Carlos, the brother, and moved herself and her godmother into the Larios house, and plotted to unmask Alejandro's deception - but opened a can of worms, because Catalina was meanwhile knocking people off left, right and centre who got in her way.
