Amor Real [DVD]
This splendid drama set in the 19th century narrates the tale of Matilde Peñalver y Beristain—elegant, stunning, and noble—who finds herself in love with the impoverished soldier Adolfo Solis. However, her mother, Augusta, is adamant about her daughter marrying a wealthy suitor. Creating a rift between the young lovers, Augusta compels Matilde to wed Manuel Fuentes Guerra—an honorable and attractive man who stands to inherit a vast fortune. Dissatisfied in her marital life, Matilde persists in her relationship with Adolfo, resulting in a love triangle that endangers everyone involved, including Matilde's unborn child.
The intense emotion and turmoil of the Mexican telenovela Amor Real is efficiently captured in this succinct DVD release. Amor Real illustrates the narrative of Matilde Penalver (Adela Noriega), the daughter of a general, who is infatuated with a common soldier named Adolfo Solis (Mauricio Islas). Unfortunately, her status-obsessed mother schemes to have her marry a prosperous landowner, Manuel Fuentes Guerra (Fernando Colunga). Yet, Manuel harbors his own secrets—he is an illegitimate son, recognized by his father only as he was on his deathbed. When Matilde uncovers the truth, she and Adolfo attempt to flee, but Manuel apprehends her and takes her to his hacienda. There, their tumultuous marriage is further strained when Adolfo returns disguised as Manuel's new overseer. The story of Amor Real then expands dramatically, incorporating various subplots such as the affair of Matilde's unscrupulous brother with a wealthy spinster; the strife between Matilde and the housekeeper, who also harbors feelings for Manuel; Adolfo's marriage to a young woman afflicted with tuberculosis; the conspiracy of Manuel's cousin to strip him of his inheritance; revolution; abduction; the assassination of a priest; passionate encounters; and much more, all culminating in an epic finale.
Despite its occasionally excessive melodrama, Amor Real features intricate plotting akin to a Victor Hugo novel—the numerous narrative threads are deftly interwoven and oscillate between joy and disaster with such intensity that it’s impossible not to be engrossed. Adding to the thrill, this DVD essentially functions as a highlights reel, condensing 95 episodes into a rapid 4.5-hour journey. Thanks to the careful editing and an engaging cast, the storyline remains accessible and exhilarating in its pace. While devotees of the complete series may feel that this abbreviated version diminishes the emotional weight of the original, it provides a thoroughly entertaining and lively experience for newcomers.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
