Martes y trece
Still Photographer
En martes y trece, dos parejas deciden casarse sin temer a las supersticiones. Pero el caso es que a uno de los novios, antes de salir para la iglesia, se le incendia la casa. Una de tantas comedias que el director Pedro Lazaga realizó durante el franquismo. En ella vuelven a repetirse las situaciones habituales en este tipo de filmes, como son las dudas de una pareja de novios, las confusiones o los equívocos. Lo mejor, sin duda, el trabajo de los actores, especialistas en el género como José Luis López Vázquez o Concha Velasco.
