El rey de los taxistas (English: "The King of the Taxi Drivers") is a 1989 Mexican comedy film directed by Benito Alazraki and starring Luis de Alba and Maribel Guardia. [1]
Taxi driver Juan Camaney (de Alba) is married to the beautiful Lorena (Guardia), but he carries on multiple affairs. Lorena, upset, agrees to work as a model for a photographer. Juan is accused for crimes that are actually committed by two men who take his taxi when he is not working. His wife and two friends clear his name, but when she sees that he is still a womanizer, Lorena marries the photographer and travels to the United States. Juan only asks her to send him two VCRs and a television.
