Comedy An undertaker's assistant marries an executioner's daughter, and the new groom takes on his father-in-law's job but grows real squeamish when the time comes to execute someone. UK TimeOut movie critic wrote: "Regularly voted by its country's critics as the best Spanish film of all time, Berlanga's brilliant dark comedy on the peculiar horror of the garotte has not lost its power over the years."

Mordaz crítica de la españa de los sesenta. Buen ejercicio de profundidad en las necesidades de aquella época y crítica velada de la dictadura, donde un Isbert sensacional, como siempre, se nos presenta como el caudillo dando sus últimas vueltas de tuerca. Sin duda es un clásico de nuestro cine de obligada visión. Muy recomendable.
