Mexican laborer Pepe Quiroga (Cantinflas) finds his world turned upside down when Don Juan, a beloved white horse from the ranch where he works, is auctioned off to a boorish film industry bigwig and is promptly transported to California. Desperate to be reunited with the animal, Quiroga sets off on a madcap journey to Hollywood, where he must wade through a sea of celebrities – including Frank Sinatra and Jimmy Durante – in the course of his search for his equine friend.
IMDB - Nominated for 7 Oscars
Now that I have read some put downs, I need to respond.
This movie 'PEPE' (1960) George Sidney, was just what tens of thousands of other movies is, and are supposed to do, that is to give you an escape.
Give you an escape from everyday blaze. It's funny, musical, short on a fabulous plot but wonderful to watch especially if you like to dream that maybe some small unknown would be able to brush elbows with the stars of the era, and save his ('son' as he says) to boot. What's so bad about that??
I'm sorry "Mario Moreno Reyes" Cantinflas did not get a fair shake from Hollywood he had such potential. In my book this is a must see.
