The Mexican Se le Fue la Mano (Overdoing It) is a perfect showcase for the comic expertise of Abel Salazar. The star is cast as a popular stage comedian who marries a fading actress, played by Martha Roth. The marriage seems doomed from the start, with the couple clashing egos at the slightest opportunity. After a contentious divorce, both husband and wife try to recapture their youth through a series of romantic entanglements. Suffice to say that it's extremely difficult to teach an old dog new tricks. Critics in 1953 were enchanted by the finale of Se le Fue la Mano, which offered two endings, one happy, the other less so (Bob Hope pulled off the same gimmick in his like-vintage Casanova's Big Night).
