Reina Zanahoria is an extremely obscure film from a rather well-known director.
Gonzalo Suarez was born in Spain in 1934. He studied Philosophy and Letters in Madrid (1951). He became an accomplished and well recognized playwright, director, artist, and author. American movie-goers will probably know him best from his 1989 film Rowing In the Wind which he wrote and directed. Spanish Exploitation fans will recognize this director from the infamous 1976 film "BEATRIZ" starring Nadiuska, Carmen Sevilla, and Jorge Rivero. This prolific director is still working in Spain today.
Reina Zanahoria is probably not considered one of his greatest accomplishments. It is not very similar to much of his later work. A favorable but light-hearted satire with out a lot going for it. Ursula is an eccentric and wealthy American known as Queen of the Carrots who arrives in Spain to conduct international trade. Jacineto a shy book salesman is set up to seduce her in order to secure a lucrative publicity contract. The energetic and lavish woman puts Jacineto to the test in a series of wild games of courtship.
