Musical comedy
spargelschatz12 December 2010
Kind of a musical comedy, or say operetta, about three sisters and three brothers who only ›get‹ each other after the sisters realize they do not really want the singer they have been chasing throughout the length of the film. In the end the three ›doves‹ show a response similar to that of Rusty in ›Hatari!‹, when Chips topples off the fence. Here, the three brothers have themselves knocked out (›nocaut‹ in Spanish) by the singer and after hesitating ever so slightly the three girls rush to fondle the brothers sprawled out on the ground and thus reveal their hearts — to the audience, the people present at the site and to themselves. The singer who never fancied any of the girls, drives off in a big car.

Almost everything happens up front. If however there is some kind of background action going on you can tell they did not take much time to instruct the extras. During a duet, the men sitting round the arena are brandishing their sombreros at certain climaxes. One of them, not to miss his cue, keeps his hand at the brim of his hat even while he is wearing it. In another scene there's a conversation on a park bench and in the background people stroll by with measured steps as if pulled on a string. The most comical scene has the three sisters dancing attendance on the singer when joining him in a song, while the singer incessantly moves around his head and rolls his eyes largely back and forth, pathetically avoiding to look at the sisters cleavages.
