What might put you off
  • It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1949: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.

Gumaro Pérez must fulfill all the whims of his wife, who is sworn lady of society even though the Pérez are not a wealthy family. In order not to look bad with his wife, Gumaro asks for a loan, but when he receives it, all his co-workers take it from him since he owes everyone money.
