Vida y milagros de Don Fausto

Overview

Based on the "Bringing Up Father" comic strip. Jiggs, a middle class man, suddenly becomes a millionaire, but does not want to abandon his old friends or his old habits. As he does not want to live like a millionaire without doing anything, nor does he want to abandon his old life, he manages to work in a variety of trades, often fantastic, such as street singer, aviator, colonizer of the planet Mars, champion horseman, etc., or simply going out partying with his usual friends. Eventually, he has to confront his wife, Crisanta, a neurotic and conceited social climber, who is delighted with her new situation. Currently considered a lost film.
