Las turistas quieren guerra

About This Movie

Las turistas quieren guerra (1977) is a quirky comedy that weaves in a rather offbeat narrative around Alberto and Jorge, two rather ordinary guys working in a refrigerator. Their whimsical dream of becoming tourism guides, spurred by the allure of charming tourists, sets the stage for a mix of playful misadventures. The film captures a lighthearted tone, blending humor with a sprinkling of romance, though it never really dives too deeply into either. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, which adds to its charm in a strange way. It’s got a certain low-budget vibe that’s both nostalgic and refreshingly raw, making it a distinctive piece in the comedy genre of the late 70s.

This film has a certain cult appeal, especially among collectors who appreciate obscure comedies from the 70s. It’s not widely available on modern formats, making original prints or VHS copies quite sought after. There’s an interesting mix of charm and awkwardness in its execution that might resonate with those who enjoy a more vintage style of storytelling. The scarcity adds to its allure, appealing to those who thrive on the hunt for lesser-known gems.
