El taxi de los conflictos (lit. 'Taxi of troubles'[1]) is a 1969 Spanish musical comedy film starring Juanjo Menéndez[2] and featuring a large roster of popular actors and singers, among whom are Marisol who sings her recent song "Corazón contento" and Carmen Sevilla who sings "Será el amor".
The film was directed by José Luis Sáenz de Heredia and Antonio Ozores based on the script by José María Palacio, José Luis Sáenz de Heredia and Mariano Ozores.[3]
It was the last film where Marisol shared the roster with Isabel Garcés, though this time they were featured in separate segments and didn't interact.
