Synopsis
The leader of a gang of thieves (Francisco Petrone) is on the run from the police. He wins the lottery, and needs someone honest to collect the prize for him.[4] He has diverse underworld friends, but none can be trusted.[5] Given the risk of being sent to prison for perhaps fifty years, the honest person must be very, very special.[6] He finally finds the woman he needs living in a boarding house.[4] Alicia Vignoli answers his want ad, which gives the film's title. She is wide-eyed and innocent, and does not realize she is being hired by a crook. Petrone falls in love, and decides to become honest himself.[7]
