One of the more diverting pleasures of the wartime Argentine movie industry was a series of romantic comedies centering around a perky young servant girl named Candida. The star of this money-spinning series was Nini Marshall, whose engaging personality carried many a weak script. Candida, La Mujer del Ano (Candida, Woman of the Year) is one of the lesser entries, with our heroine getting mixed up with politics a la Eva Peron. Most of the scripted gags and situations fall flat, forcing Marshall to work overtime in lighting up the screen with her presence. Despite its flaws, the film was just as successful as all previous "Candida" escapades.
