Plot

Two small-time con men make a living of swindling people. They have a relatively happy life despite some "visits" to Carabanchel Prison. However, one of them, Virgilio, falls in love with the sister of his partner. Since she is not happy about their style of living, they decide to become honest people. Having failed in other jobs, open their own travel agency, which turns out to be a success after some comical incidents.

Critic

Spanish critic Carlos Aguilar in his Guía del cine español considers this film "in his own way, a classic".[1]

gollark: The generality of this solution and the fact that they'll probably keep the exact details private for "security"-through-obscurity reasons also means that, as I have written here (https://osmarks.net/osbill/) in a blog post tangentially mentioning it, someone could just feed it image hashes for, say, anti-government memes and find out who is saving those.
gollark: No.
gollark: Please wait between 0 and 11.
gollark: I wrote about this before. To save time I'll adapt what I already said.
gollark: It would probably be quite obvious at the time also.
