This was the 1st animated color movie of Europe. I remember I saw it in the movies about 20-25 years ago (it was a re-release, of course). The movie was full of adventures and it had a great animation, with a bit of action, a bit of sense of humor and a bit of drama and tenderness. It was a nice experience to watch this movie, even if it may appear kind of dated, cause it shows a good story starred by a brave guy, and shows additional values (even if most of them were inspired by the dictatorship of the time). A good recommendation for kids of all ages. Watch it, especially with its original Spanish sound, and then tell me how you feel.
This comedy shows how people shouldn't hurry to make serious things, (like getting married, for instance). In this movie, the "odyssey" of a rich-becoming man to find a wife who "helps" him to inherit a fortune is showed with great efficiency. The lots of problems that appear in an apparently simple task like searching for a wife to become rich shows this is not as easy as it may seem, and you can see there that money doesn't always bring happiness, until it's come.
By the way, I must say that I saw this movie on TV when I was in Italy last month, otherwise I think I couldn't have seen it. But that's the best way to watch a movie like this: Totò's comicity is better in O. V.

I saw this movie last week on TV, while being in Italy for a family matter. I enjoyed every single minute of that ancient but truly good and effective "Italian style" comedy. Totò steals every scene and some times he doesn't really need to do a thing to become funny. His face, expressions and speech can do most of the half of the movie. Of course the other actors also played correctly their parts and there was no real hole because of the script or the performances. I must admit that some comic situations can be a little forced and somehow previsible, but none of them were absolutely unnecessary. Totò also made very good movies along his career, but not all were as remarkable as this.
I said I was in Italy when I saw and that's not for free: if you can, try to see (and hear) Totò's movies in the original version, that's MUCH better.
