La Vendedora de fantasías (The Fantasy Saleswoman) is a 1950 Argentine crime comedy film directed by Daniel Tinayre. It stars Mirtha Legrand and Alberto Closas.
Marta (Legrand), a department store clerk, aids her police detective fiancé (Closas) in hunting down a gang of jewel thieves. She awakens to later realise that it was all a dream.[1]
The critic King thought it was "good cinema and another opportunity to laugh" and Noticias Gráficas considered it a "funny, agile and very well filmed police farce". Film writers Raúl Manrupe and María Alejandra Portela write: "Successful at the time, today it can be seen as an exercise of formal and conceptual arbitrariness. Valued in part by the critics, it retains some effective moments."[2]
