El casto Susano ("The Chaste Susano") is a 1954 Mexican comedy film directed by Joaquín Pardavé and starring Pardavé, Silvia Pinal and Fernando Fernández.[1]

Plot

Susano is a country man who lives in a puritanical marriage with Virtudes, with whom he has a daughter, Marta. Annoyed that Manuel, Marta's suitor, appears to be an inexperienced and naive young man, he takes him on a trip to the capital. The trip actually turns out to be an excuse for Susano to visit the vedette Mimi, whom he has been courting by presenting himself as a bachelor, much to the annoyance of another of Mimi's suitors, Federico. During their stay, Susano discovers that Manuel is actually known in the capital as a bohemnian singer and songwriter, who only pretended to be naive to Marta in an attempt to break off the relationship, as it was Manuel's father who arranged Manuel's engagement with Marta against Manuel's wishes. Complicating things even more, Susano discovers that his wife Virtudes and Marta also traveled to the capital, having been alerted by Federico.

Cast

Production

Pardavé's character, Susano Alegre y Rematado, has been considered a sort of parody of the character that had established him as an actor in My Memories of Mexico (1944), Susano "Susanito" Peñafiel y Somellera.[2] Pardavé and Antonio Aguilar had previously worked together on My Darling Clementine (1953).[2]

Release

The film premiered at the Cine Opera on 20 May 1954.[1]
