Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
René Cardona directed over 100 films, but horror fans know him for 'Santa Claus' (1959) and 'Night of the Bloody Apes'—this comedy era is wildly different territory.
The film captures post-war Mexico's growing middle class anxiety, where secretarial work—'women's work'—offered little security and bill-collecting was barely more respectable.
