Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Cantinflas's 'peladito' character here directly confronts Mexico's urban elite, making class commentary palatable through laughter.
The hippie subplot was added to capitalize on 1960s youth culture trends, making this one of Cantinflas's most 'current' social satires.
