English title: The Diamond Arm
A common guy goes out on a vacation trip and unwittingly becomes a bearer of smuggled jewels, which were placed on him under an arm cast after he suffers an accident. After he becomes aware of his misfortune, he makes contact with the police, who use him as an undercover agent to catch the smugglers.
Comedy of errors, with plenty of action and good actors. It is frequently said that much of its humor is lost in translation, so I am not confident I will be able to assess it reliably. On the other hand, there is not a lot I did not understand about the plot and the dialogue, what there was of them in the subtitles anyway. All that being said, I was not overly fond of this film. It qualifies as a passable time waster, with a few mild laughs every once in a while, and that is all.
