The sentimental issues come when Cantinflas falls in love with his pretty neighbor (Silvia Pinal), who is handicapped and unable to walk. The thing won't be easy, because a young military man also has feelings for the girl. But the porter wants to see her happy, and he will become a sort of Cyrano De Bergerac, writing love letters to her signed by the young soldier. His plan is simple: to win money in the horse races in order to pay the operation which will make her walk again. Written by Alejandro Frias See less
