Nosotros los pobres (1948)

Nosotros los pobres ("We, the Poor Ones") is a 1948 Mexican drama film directed by Ismael Rodríguez. It was originally titled Topillos y Planillas (named after two of the characters in the film and before the main character Jose "Pepe el Toro" was created), but later changed after its author Pedro de Urdimalas heard Abel Cureño (who's also in the film and at that time was playing a street orange seller in the radio show La Banda de Huipanguillo) commenting (in character) about the unfair treatment the poor people of the city went through exclaiming: "Nosotros los pobres somos despreciados por la gente; Nosotros los pobres no tenemos nada" ("We the poor ones are rejected by the people; We the poor ones have nothing".)
