Mi Viuda Allegre (My Merry Widow) was perceived by some reviewers as a reworking of the French box-office success La Soir Revolution. Spanish comedian Angel Garasa makes his screen debut as a middle-class family man who disappears during a trip out of town. Presumed dead, Garasa is actually hale and hearty, but for reasons of his own he elects not to reveal this fact. Our hero is galvanized into returning to life to squelch the romance between his "widow" Beatriz Ramos and handsome doctor Jorge Reyes. Conga-rumba dancer Margarita Mora stops the show with an energetic nightclub number.
