Production

The film was made after the success of Sabor a mí, a biopic about the Mexican singer-songwriter Álvaro Carrillo, also directed by René Cardona Jr.[2][3] The life of José Alfredo Jiménez had already been portrayed in cinema before in Que te vaya bonito (1978); however, Pero sigo siendo el rey had a bigger budget.[2]

Reception

Cinema Ameriq Latine 2000 criticized the film, saying that it was "weighed down by too narrow a view of the forms a genuinely popular artist's existence took" and that it was "a plethora of historical incongruities." It also highlights that the film "abuses the use of songs (which add up to 22), which add nothing or almost nothing to the logic or structure of the story, and most of them are executed without the minimum necessary encouragement to make them moving."[2]
