Cantinflas

How does a young entertainer named Mario Moreno become Cantinflas, the comic Mexico cannot stop watching? The film follows Óscar Jaenada in the role, while the Broadway producer Michael Todd (Michael Imperioli) struggles to get Around the World in 80 Days made. Sebastián del Amo ties their stories together, and Mario spends the film chasing the respect that fame, so far, has not brought him.
