In addition to the remake currently aired on TV Globo, the soap opera “VALUE EVERYTHING” originally written by Gilberto Braga, Aguinaldo Silva and Leonor Bassères, also had a Latin adaptation in 2002. In the plot, the role of the villain Odete Roitman for example, it was from Cuban actress Zully Montero.
The antagonist’s name was also changed to Lucrezia. In addition to working on TV, the character’s interpreter was also in projects in cinema and theater. Born in Santo Suarez, in Cuba, she was born in 1944 and started to dedicate herself to her career at the age of 11.
Due to the lack of freedom in the country, he moved already married to New York, United States, where he found a friend with whom he had done theater in Cuba. After returning to act, Zully Montero divorced her husband, who did not accept her work.
Subsequently, the actress migrated to TV and in 1979, played Aurelia in the movie “El Super”. Already his debut in soap operas took place in 1990, in “El Magnate”. Montero’s career unleashed with several other works, including the remake of “Vale Tudo”.
The adaptation that became “Vale Todo” earned TV Globo the remuneration by the soap opera audience, while Telemundo pocketed the revenue of commercials. Because it did not achieve the desired success, the plot had 100 chapters and not 150, as it had been initially planned.
In the Latin remake, the character of Lucrezia Roitman is killed by the butler Eugênio originally lived by Sérgio Mamberti (1939-2021) and interpreted abroad by Julio Rodríguez.
The death had a different killer from the original version, when the character, played by Beatriz Segall (1926-2018), was killed by Leila (Cássia Kis).
