Celeste

Quotes:
ATTENTION: I have translated the quotes to English, but they lose a lot of their "MAGIC" that way. So if you can understand them in Spanish, just skip the English part. Thank you.

Trivia:

Selica’s character reminds Mrs. Danvers’ Character in Hitchcock’s film "Rebecca" very much.

Cachita also tells Celeste one time, that she was as brave as Joan Fontain in "Rebecca"

The angels motif:

Franco goes to a buisness trip to Los Angeles in the beginning of Celeste.
Enzo calls Celeste "Angelito" or "Cara de Angel".
Celeste tells Teresa the "Angels Phrase" for the first time in episode 77.
The "Angels Phrase" returns in Celeste episode 172, the final monologue, that closes the novella.

Episode 50, when Celeste does not come back, Cachita talks about "Maddam X" that lost her memory and didn’t come back home.(Mind Celeste, Siempre Celeste).
