Few times has the Mexican movies industry explored this type of comedy. This particular film is surprisingly very well made, specially since its 2 main characters are played by an Actor, Arturo de Cordova, and an Actress, Amparo Rivelles, whose background is in tragic and/or very formal performances. It is a story of a married couple whose life has come to the point of a disaster, basically due to the jealousness of the wife. The Husband a taxidermist announces to their friends that she has gone to another City on vacations, but keeps in his shop an skeleton. This of course is the center plot of the movie and all black humor situations are derived from this. The movie is light and keeps the viewers entertained throughout its entire length.
墨西哥恐怖看得不多，此部尚可。
气氛一流，镜头有特点，频繁运用脸部特写来强调人物关键内心活动，用调度表现人物关系，手法沉稳娴熟，加上剧本骨架非常利落，一个典型的“消失的爱人”式故事，节奏控制也非常理想，前半程很容易渐入佳境，可惜男主行为使故事还是降格至传统悬疑罪案，没有深入刻画婚姻关系中隐藏的权利制衡、“冷暴力”与心理“虐待”、女主潜意识等有趣的话题，而仅仅止步于一个肤浅的罪案，实在遗憾。
