[edit]Reception
[edit]Clarín wrote: “Román Viñoly Barreto’s direction is rather primitive. With few variations, it boils down to alternating long shots focused on the protagonist with brief shots focused on the other characters.”[1] And Manrupe and Portela admitted that Sandrini "whose dialogues and monologues [were] as ornate as the set design" and the open ending could have been better.[1]
The film is said to be part of time of transition in Luis Sandrini's career, introducing in his comedic roles a dose of sentimentalism and moralising emotions.[2]
