Argentine film historian J. A. Mahieu (1966) described Nobleza Gaucha as simple and ingenuous but… its scenes of almost feudal exploitation make it the first film to portray the oppression of the rural classes in Argentina.

Much of the film was shot on location in Buenos Aires.   Martinez de la Pera and Gunche used traveling shots from streetcars and trains to capture street-level images of the city.
