He will ride a white horse when he comes..
dbdumonteil21 April 2007
It was the first time Joselito had teamed up with another singer.It would continue in the follow-up "Bello recuerdo" with Libertad Lamarque. Unlike the latter,which had a rather interesting screenplay,this one is almost worthless.

Its subject is the rebuilding of a family ,a well-known tale,which had been used in almost every movie Joselito had made and would be used again afterward.It looks like a Spanish "western" and includes an attack against a diligence,a lonesome rider who puts horses over women and children,a strong grumpy granny ,a lovely schoolteacher and a "Romeo and Juliet" dream sequence which,like the musical scenes ,is mostly filler.

Coming just after the black and white "los dos gosfillos" and its atrocious ending,it was necessary to provide Joselito's audience with an optimistic harmless flick.
