Informal U.S. title: The Grand Dukes
Three decadent stage actors land a job in a comedy touring the province. The producer just wants to botch the performances in order to collect the insurance.
Not especially attractive comedy which seems to be just a vehicle for its actors. The main idea here was previously used in the 1960 Brazilian comedy Eu Sou o Tal!, which I reviewed here, and consists in that the accidents during a performance make it better than it would normally be. Here it is better -- but still unsatisfactorily -- developed than in that earlier film.
Rating: 30
