Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Ana Mariscal was one of Argentina's rare female director-actors of the era, though Togni directed here. She'd helm her own films within years.
This belongs to Argentina's golden age of studio comedy, when the industry rivaled Hollywood's Spanish-language output before economic collapse killed it.
