Reception Clarín wrote: “Román Viñoly Barreto’s direction is rather primitive. With few variations, it boils down to alternating long shots focused on the protagonist with brief shots focused on the other characters.”Manrupe, Raúl; Portela, María Alejandra (2001). A Dictionary of Argentine Films (1930-1995), p. 289. Buenos Aires, Editorial Corregidor. ISBN 950-05-0896-6. And Manrupe and Portela admitted that Sandrini "whose dialogues and monologues [were] as ornate as the set design" and the open ending could have been better.
The film is said to be part of time of transition in Luis Sandrini's career, introducing in his comedic roles a dose of sentimentalism and moralising emotions.https://www.serargentino.com/argentina/biografias/luis-sandrini-en-el-olimpo-de-los-comediantes-del-mundo
