Very strange execution.

Yes I was wondering too. Perhaps... something was drilled into her skull?

 

It is unique, there are several episodes of "La huella del crimen", ending in garroting execution, of womens 2, this and Pilar Prades "Las envenenadas de valencia".

All others, put the iron collar on his neck. The actress was the most popular in those years, in fact the expression of his face is very good during the execution, looks like she was afraid filming this scene and did so.

 

This is obviously a misunderstanding of what the garrote was, ignorance probably due to the fact that during all the years of Franco's dictatorship nobody spoke much about that publicly. The producers took the Catalonian (spiked) garrote and figured out that instead of being around the condemned's neck, it was put on his/her head!..

 

This is a very nice, unusual which makes it so neat. I especially like the exquisite pain that she felt in contrast to that of a normal garrote.
