Spanish director Juan Potau debuts with this wacky screwball romantic comedy. Tomas (Oscar Ladoire), an embittered, middle-aged publisher of romantic novels, resolves one day to kill himself. Instead, he ends up saving fellow would-be suicide Tito (Carlos Fuentes). In gratitude, Tito brings Tomas into his bizarre family, including his aging beauty queen mother, his wizened father, and his two sisters.
