Reception

La Razón said in its chronicle: "A deficient cha-cha-cha... Estrada, in his role as an established actor, whispers "The film is very bad". It sounds like a confession." Clarín opined: "Absurd dialogue and forced situations." Raúl Manrupe and María Alejandra Portela in their book Un diccionario de films argentinos (1930–1995) write (translated from Spanish): " La dolce vita according to Carreras, in one of his worst films".[4]
