User Reviews

A classical trading places romance plot in a Mexican little hacienda.

The story is a very old one: an arranged match between a guy from the city and a girl from a little town; of course, no one wants to fulfill their duty, so they trade places with friend and servant, and so on...

The film value depends mostly in the acting of Gloria Lozano: light character and cute, funny, expressive faces all the time.
