Las películas bajo el calificativo del destape no solo revolucionaron el cine de una época, sino que fueron un auténtico revulsivo para una sociedad hastiada por el franquismo. Erróneamente se han tratado de manera despectiva e incluso algunos de sus protagonistas han querido omitirlas deliberadamente de sus trayectorias.
