My Beloved Juan (Spanish:Mi adorado Juan) is a 1950 Spanish comedy film directed by Jerónimo Mihura and starring Conchita Montes, Conrado San Martín and Juan de Landa.
Synopsis
The strange disappearance of the dogs of his neighbors leads Juan to investigate it, falling all suspicion on a certain Eloísa, the proud daughter of a scientist who uses dogs to create an antidote against sleep. Juan is a person who is everyone's friend because his only occupation is to do favors for everyone and sleep a lot, with the conviction that whoever sleeps well has to be a good person, without the evil and rancor that comes from not sleeping. In this way he establishes acquaintance with Eloisa.
