Production
Rafaela Aparicio, Fernando Fernán Gómez, and Concha Velasco were originally intended to portray Tata, Teo, and Elvira, but they had to decline.[5] Borau later argued that Imperio, Landa, and Maura represented by themselves three eras of Spanish cinema.[5] Shooting locations included Mallos de Riglos and an apartment at the Calle de Alfonso XII near El Retiro.[4]
Release
Dear Nanny was released theatrically in Spain on 18 December 1986.[6] It grossed 68,114,656 ₧ (218,663 admissions).[6]
Reception
Ángel Fernández-Santos of El País lamented that Elorriaga's character's lack of plausibility wounds the film at its heart, damaging a work that is [otherwise] "full of cinematic intelligence and rigor in its execution".[7]
