Customer Reviews

a fabulous comedia ranchera
Made in 1946, this is one of the best slapstick comedies ever, starting from the first scene with the cigar smoking grandmother, played to the max by Sara Garcia, who's comedic timing is perfection. The way she wields her cane will have you howling with laughter.

Pedro Infante is also marvelous and funny as her tequila drinking grandson, and so are Abel Salazar as his gentle, poor brother, and Victor Manuel Mendoza as his vain, rich one. The trios they sing are a delight. I especially like the "Cielito Lindo"...it's a lovely rendition of this favorite song.

The charro/bullfighting scene is sensational, and the sepia toned cinematography wonderful. Though it has an occasional line going through it in the first part of the film, it's amazingly clear...and you'll be so amused that you'll forget that your're watching a film that's nearly 55 years old. If nothing else but to see these hilarious performances (oh ! Sara is a jewel !) this is one not to miss.

Mexican Cinema at it's best.
The first time I watched this movie I was about 8yrs old. This movie stuck w/ me. It was untill I was 16 that I had the oppurtunity to view this movie again and even though it was eight years it still left the same impression. This movie is great. This movie has a great story with wonderful acting by Pedro Infante. Infact all of his films, now that have seen most of them, are great. I recently watched the sequel to this movie and it blew me away how funny it was but yet very emotional. This a must see for any spanish movie buff.

pelicula BUENISIMA!
ME ENCANTO ESTA PELICULA. ES TAN DIVERTIDA. PEDRO INFANTE COMO SIEMPRE ISO TREMENDO TRABAJO. SI PUDIERA DARLE 10 ESTRELLAS LO HARIA.
