Overview
Mr. Photographer, also known by its Spanish title El señor fotógrafo, is a 1953 Mexican comedy thriller film. Directed by Miguel M. Delgado, the production features actors Mario Moreno Cantinflas, Rosita Arenas, Rebeca Iturbide, and Ángel Garasa. The film has a runtime of one hour and forty minutes and was released in Mexico on September 2, 1953.
The story follows a traveling photographer played by Cantinflas. While attempting to acquire flowers for his girlfriend, he is abducted by a group of gangsters. The criminals mistakenly identify him as the assistant to Dr. Penongo, a scientist who has successfully developed the formula for a new atomic bomb. The situation is complicated by the fact that Dr. Penongo has been involved in a car accident, which has resulted in the loss of his memory. This mix-up places the photographer in a precarious position as he becomes entangled in the dangerous affairs of the gangsters and the missing scientist. The film combines elements of humor and suspense as the plot unfolds.
