Neither Blood Nor Sand

1941 · 104 min

A breezy, wordplay-heavy comedy of mistaken identity that coasts on its star's rambling charm and gentle bullring farce.

Overview: Cantinflas enjoys the bullfight show, and wants to crash in every of these spectacles. Also, there's a professional bullfighter, Manolete, who is identical to Cantinflas. Manolete has to give a bullfight show in a village, but Cantinflas arrives first as a stowaway in a train, and he'll be mistake by the real bullfighter. Cantinflas will give us a demonstration of courage.
How it feels: Whimsical, light, satirical and warm. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Identity, deception, friendship, class
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
