I've seen this movie recently and I really enjoyed it.
Although it shows a problem many families deal with (having an old person in the family, and not knowing what to do with him/her), it shows it in a funny way.
It tells the story about Mamá Cora (Antonio Gasalla), a woman in her eighties who apparently, it's disturbing in her bigger son's house. Her son's wife wants her out of the house, as she is driving her mad. Mamá Cora tries to help, but unfortunately, everything she does, she does it wrongly.
The family goes through lots of trouble, trying to solve what to do with Mamá Cora. While all this happens, a confusion makes the family believe she dies, and that leads to the funniest scenes of the comedy, although the whole movie is hilarious.
If want to rent a good comedy, I strongly recommend you to go for "Esperando la Carroza". Not to mention the outstanding performances of actors like China Zorrilla, Betiana Blum and Luis Brandoni, among others.
My score 10/10. Excellent movie.

This movie is extremely interesting. It shows the reality of a typical Argentinian family (In the 80s, but more or less the same story is happening nowadays). Basically the movie is about an *ancient* lady who is almost left alone by her own family, because as she is old and annoying nobody want to live with her. So every member of the family tries to avoid the idea of having *mommy* at home, but when they find out that she got lost, they start to seem worried. You should see this film if you enjoy sarcastic comments, funny dialogs and lovely characters. Every actor/actress in this movie is a real good one.
If you want to know about people behavior in Buenos Aires, specially from middle class, with lots of acid critics to the society and its traditions, this is the best movie to watch. Here you'll find amazing actors in a really funny story and if you pay attention beyond the details you can recognize many things that argentineans inherit from their close ancestors: italians and spanish immigrants as well.
To watch this film is to open your mind to an extreme point of laugh. Excellent performances and a beautiful art direction, this film becomes in Argentina's greatest comedy ever.
¿Sabías que...?
- CuriosidadesAll the houses that appear in the film are very close to each other in the same Buenos Aires neighborhood, Versalles. The main house (Elvira and Sergio's) became too old with the years. It was about to face demolition but the city's government decided to mark it as a cultural landmark and it was totally repaired. Now, it is a site of pilgrimage for thousands of fans who visit it all year round to take pictures and tour around the neighborhood. The house is inhabited by the same family who owned it at the time of the filming. They even have a female dog as pet named after one of the characters in the movie: "Matilde" (the young daughter of Elvira and Sergio).

Antonio: [in the car, eating an empanada he picked up from some very poor relative's house] What misery! What misery! Do you know what did they have for lunch?
Sergio: [looking at the empanada Antonio is eating] Empanadas.
Antonio: Three of them. It broke my heart! Three leftover empanadas from last night's dinner for two people! God, how little you can do to help people!
