Reception

In May 1980, Carlos Boyero, inGuía del Ocio wrote:

Spanish: Trueba, amante de epopeyas soñadas habla de lo que ve, con ternura, con sarcasmo, con frescura, sin solemnidad, sin buscar salidas definitivas, sin pedir nada, con inteligencia. "Ópera prima", comedia, pedazo de vida, pureza en movimiento, salto al ruedo sin caparazones que espanten el peligro. " Trueba, lover of dream epics speaks of what he sees, with tenderness, with sarcasm, with freshness, without solemnity, without looking for definitive exits, without asking for anything, with intelligence. Prime opera, comedy, piece of life, purity in motion, jump into the ring without shells that scare away danger.[1]
