Reckless (Spanish: Balarrasa) is a 1951 Spanish drama film directed by José Antonio Nieves Conde. It was entered into the 1951 Cannes Film Festival.
Plot
Spanish missionary Javier Mendoza (Fernando Fernán Gómez) finds himself trapped in the middle of a massive snow storm in Alaska. Fearing that the end of his days has come, he begins to remember his life: After the death of his mother, his father (Javier Tordesillas) dedicates himself to gambling and Javier himself, known as Balarrasa, also leads a life rampant. Nor do the other siblings, Fernando (Luis Prendes), Lina (Dina Stern) and Maite (María Rosa Salgado) lead exemplary lives. When the Spanish Civil War breaks out, Mendoza incurs in an unheroic behavior that ends the life of a colleague by playing cards for a guard that does not belong to him. Impressed by the event, he enters the Seminary. After redirecting the existence of his relatives, he begins a new life as a missionary.
