A plot about adultery - a very common thing in our modern world, where two couples (one husband being his friend's woman lover and vice-versa) hire the services of a clumsy detective played by José Vasconcelos (a very competent Brazilian comedian, in my humble opinion), then all the mess is made, bringing good moments of laughing for the watcher. The beginning of the movie is a tribute to silent movies, and then a very creative comedy is made, beating down any soap opera you've ever watched (especially more recent ones). On purpose, there is a scene when they make a joke using soap opera as theme. It worths to see the movie because of the good plot, the good humor of José Vasconcelos with a very good cast, among them, Mario Benvenutti, one of the greatest Brazilian movie actors of all time (who acted in masterpieces such as "Noite Vazia", directed by Walter Hugo Khouri) and Guy Loup (presented as Isabel Cristina) one of the most beautiful women of that times, who became a religious Umbanda priestess, several years later. Have fun with this good picture!
