Gran Valor
Abel Amoroso, a cadet in a notary's house and responsible for taking the deposits to the bank, is kidnapped by a gang whose leader, Luis Santanelli, has an incredible physical resemblance to the cadet. The captor adopts the identity of his sosias, elopes with the loot, convinces investigators of his innocence, and marries Abel's girlfriend.
