So-so Spanish comedy with the likeable actress Lina Morgan and a great plethora of Spanish actors . Mediocre but fun comedy dealing with a naive small town girl called Benita (Lina Morgan) , when his aunt Agata dies she moves from Almeria to the capital Madrid to begin a new life, seeking love and suitors (as she meets a lot : José Luis López Vazquez , José Sacristan , Antonio Ozores) . However , things go wrong when she becomes involved with bad girls (Florinda Chico , Maria Paz Pondal , Teresa Hurtado) living in Madrid Costa Fleming - until she meets Don Carlos, a good-looking doctor (Angel Aranda) .
Funny and uneven comedy , appointed for all kind of public about a silly premise : a young woman moves to Madrid seeking love and freedom , nevertheless things don't go as planned ; being regularly directed by the prolific Mariano Ozores . The hilarious happenings are continuous , surrealist , ridiculous and sometimes gross-out , but in some moments here and there , they are also bold and risible . This film is made to entertain , and this movie , especially for a good time and a pleasant amusement . Bemusing story with enjoyable but also absurd moments and attractive acting by likable comedians : Lina Morgan , José Luis López Vazquez , Antonio Ozores and José Sacristán . Here there are some nice jokes , comical sketches and the cast , playing eccentric characters , make a cosy fit . It is a nutty Spanish comedy that offers no intellectual stimulus whatsoever , though it has some entertaining and hilarious moments . The film attempts to give laughs but it falls short , resulting in a mediocre and sometimes embarrassing film . An enticing but disconcerting Spanish comedy film and with its ups and downs ; here our protagonist , the great Lina Morgan , demonstrates her real comical skills .
