I've thought about it and came to the conclusion that I would do a good business if I was to re-release this movie on theaters in the US, I would make a good deal of money. "Escuela de Rateros" (School of Traps) is very funny and entertaining. Pedro Infante and Miroslava had both great performances. It is about a singer-composer (Pedro Infante) that goes out hunting and when he looses his car, he goes looking for a phone in the area.
Destiny took him to a house of wealthy people who think he is a trap. After he is taken care of in the house (he did not said who he was) he has the adventure of his life. He falls in love with the oldest daughter and the real fun begins. Will they know who he really is or will he keep the secret. Great movie.
