...Ladislao Vajda, a Hungarian director working in Spain, into a film as simple and sincere as a child's tear. The actors, especially Marcelino (Pablito Calvo) and Brother Cookie (Juan Calvo), play with an easy matter-of-factness that makes the transition from natural to supernatural almost disappear.
