Paco Martínez Soria recital displaying his usual sympathy, tics and hilarious skills .

He is married a good woman : Julia Caba Alba and they have two children, the Hippie Esteban : José Maria Guillen and the snooty Julia : Maria Bauza who has been studying in London . Son and daughter attempt to educate to their Papa with fateful consequences .
One of the best films that launched Paco Martínez Soria 's career with his typical Aragonés character , a traditional man following old habits , in this one Severiano/Paco Martínez Soria taught their children to behave rightly . As Severiano does everything he can to put things straight , which he finally gets by educating his beloved children . Based on a play : "La educacion de los padres" by José Villar and story by Vicente Coello , Mariano Ozores and Paco Martínez Soria himself . The film is totally delightful from start to finish thanks to this over-the-top actor , as Paco steals the show with his Aragonese accent , and his particular manners as a grumpy and intimate old person . Here Paco is well accompanied by a good cast as the always agreeable Julia Caba Alba , the peculiar Rafael L Somoza , the regular servant Rafaela Carra , and other habitual secondaries such as : Maria Isbert as English teacher , Maximo Valverde , Emilio Laguna, Erasmo Pascual , Luis Barbero, Carmen Cervera, Maria Kosti, Helga Line and Jaime De Mora De Aragon as a fake count .
