Basket of Mexican Tales
1956, Spanish. Directed by Julio Bracho.
Strong-willed Luisa attracts lots of men, but her intelligence and sharp tongue often sends them running. When she meets Carlos, who is equally cagey, sparks fly. The two of them marry, and quickly begin clashing on a daily basis, humiliating each other as they try to teach one another lesson after lesson.
