What happens

If I'm to Be Killed Tomorrow (Spanish: Si me han de matar mañana) is a 1947 Mexican comedy film directed by Miguel Zacarías and starring Sofía Álvarez, Pedro Infante and René Cardona. It was shot at the Churubusco Studios in Mexico City. The film's sets were designed by the art director Vicente Petit. A Ranchera film, it was produced during the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema. The title comes from a shortening of the expression "If I'm to be killed tomorrow, better to get it over with today". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
