A Mexican version of the famous "Cinderella And The Glass Slipper" story? Yup, that's what you get here in this modern-day Looney Tunes cartoon. I say "modern day" because I don't recall seeing any cartoons in the LT Golden Collection DVDs made as late as 1964. I have seen all the collections but Volume Four, and can't recall any of the '60s.
The opening graphics are so different than the '40s and '50s it was almost a shock to see. The artwork was good, though: very colorful and done well in a new style for Looney Tunes.
The story would probably be censored by Politically-Correct Police of today as it uses names for Mexicans such as "Sarsaparilla, Tabasco," and other phrases; anything that sounds Spanish and the accents are a bit exaggerated. (I'm not on PC side unless it is overtly racist or mean-spirited to any group.) This has a nice side; it's not trying to demean Hispanics but by today's standards, it comes across as a bit condescending in spots. Not every Mexican is a bullfighter, or wears a sombrero everywhere, or can't spell or brutalizes the English language, etc.
Anyway, the humor is "fair," nothing super but not bad. I liked the colorful and modern artwork, and the faces and "latest dresses from Madrid" of the women, were a lot of fun to watch. This was a hoot for the eyes, even if the jokes were a little too corny to laugh.
