It is an agreeable picture concerning the silly adventures of a Cab man who attempts to teach his descendants , but things get worse . Taxi driver Antonio discovers one day that each of his children , the singer Luisa 'La Caoba' (Irán Eory) , the slacker Juán (Pepe Rubio) , the good girl Paloma (María José Goyanes) and the bullfighter Antonio Martínez 'El Abogado' (Emilio Gutiérrez Caba) have been hiding their true way of life . As his offspring turns out extremely free , philander , and and lazy . A bit later on , hard-working Antonio drives in the capital and he is caught in the vortex of the Gran Vía's traffic jam when is fined by a traffic officer (Alfredo Landa) who results to be the daughter's boyfriend . Antonio will attempt , with a typical hard attitude , for them to obey him, despite not being totally sure if his methods are the right ones or his teaching is adequate . But the children encounter a frenetic and hostile world , and the father finds out his unhappy relatives in real problems . At last , he arranges to reach peace and order at an excessively sentimental ending .
Amusing Spanish comedy but extremely moralizing with the great Paco Martínez Soria who became himself a big star during his last years ; he steals the show with his Aragonese accent , and playing splendidly his usual role as a fast-talking , grumpy as well as intimate old man . This diverting movie deals with a taxi worker , the simple-minded Antonio Martínez (Paco Martínez Soria) , who lives in Madrid along with wife - Mercedes Vecino- and sons , but things are far from ideal . Funny and fun acting by the old cab man magnificently played by Paco Martínez who decides to settle down his children . Being well written by prestigious and prolific screenwriter Vicente Coello and based on Carlos LLopis story . The film develops Paco Martínez Soria's classical formula : a lot of problems that the veteran worker attempts to resolve , as well as a troublesome family ; as the sympathetic daddy is upsetting by the loss of moral values that governs his relatives : frivolity , egoism , duplicity and deceits . This film is made to entertain , and this movie , especially for a good time and a pleasant entertainment and is also pretty darn funny . Sitting in a strange middle ground between the completely absurd and the stylishly enjoyable . There are some nice jokes in the film and the cast , playing eccentric characters , make a cosy fit . The flick interweaves fun comedy along with a social criticism about the peculiar Spain of the 60s . This film packs customary images of the social life from the sixties , nutty situations , but it especially contains catching touches of humor , tongue-in-cheek and irony ; adding the typical Spanish idiosyncrasy . Nicely performed by Paco Martínez Soria , a noted Spanish stage and screen actor . He played mostly comedy roles and was born on December 18, 1902 in Tarazona, Zaragoza, and died 1982 in Madrid . He moved to Barcelona in 1907 where made mostly his career and had his own theatre in Barcelona , the Talía Theatre . He was a great comedian actor and writer, especially known for La Ciudad No Es Para Mí (1966), Don Erre Que Erre (1970) and ¡¡Se Armó El Belén!! (1970). The film is full of familiar faces and cameos , such as Gracita Morales as the ordinary lively maid , Manolo Gómez Bur , Luis Barbero , Rafael L Somoza , Jose Sazatornil , Margot Cottens , Esperanza Roy , José Saza , Francisco Camoiras , Fabián Conde , Emilio Laguna , Jesús Guzmán , Sancho Gracia , and many others . And an evocative and catching musical score by Antón García Abril , adding some pop songs by a Pop band with soundtrack typical of the sixties and early seventies .
