Reception

edit

Eduardo Saglul in La Opinión said: "Equal distance from absurdism and realism, some feverish moments create a certain unreal climate". Manrupe and Portela write: "Quite a horse classic, listed that year in Variety as one of the 50 highest-grossing films in the world. It includes unmissable dream sequences."[4]
