Able to interpret almost any role in an innovative, original manner, Tin Tan turns his gangster into a unique individual with a definite comic cast. As might be expected, the gangster has a female interest (played by Virma Gonzalez) and the usual group of lackeys and associates that add to the fun. Ironically, Tin Tan began his prolific film career in 1942 in Hotel del Verano directed by René Cardona, and ended it nearly thirty years later, in 1972, in Noche de Muerte -- by Cardona! ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
