Pablo y Carolina (1955, Mexico)

Carolina Cirol (Irasema Dilián) goes to a secretarial college and is bored stiff. The principal is very strict and stuffy, and in her boredom Carolina writes a passionate love letter to a fictional Pablo Garza, but it gets sent by mistake and received by real Pablo Garza's girlfriend.

Pablo himself (Pedro Infante) flies to Mexico City looking for an explanation, and at this time Carolina is rehearsing a musical show for her school; she is playing a man's part as a sailor. When Pablo meets her, she pretends to be her brother Anibal; Pablo likes Anibal and invites "him" to a cabaret. Carolina falls inlove with Pablo but does not want to unveil her real self. Meanwhile, Pablo feels himself confused, because young "Anibal" is cute as an angel and has "those blue eyes".
