About Canuto Cañete, conscripto del 7
Canuto tries his best not to do military service, but he doesn't get it. During his time in the Army he gets into any trouble that comes up, including his involvement with a gang of thieves who have hidden loot near the regiment.
Directed by Julio Saraceni, Canuto Cañete, conscripto del 7 leans on a strong ensemble — Carlos Balá, Morenita Galé, Romualdo Quiroga — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1963.
