New scenes were added to The Torch which depicted an influenza plague killing several townspeople and Goddards Maria Dolores drops everything to help before leaving her life of luxury to follow the man she comes to love.Despite retaining several actors, the same director Emilio Fernndez, same cinematographerGabriel Figueroa, and same leading man, relationships depicted in the English version of film are not as well established or convincing as in the original due to miscasting, translation into English, and cultural differences.
