The Doorman (Spanish: El portero),[1] also known as Puerta, joven (Spanish: Door, Young Man or The Door, Please),[2][3][4] is a 1950 Mexican comedy film directed by Miguel M. Delgado and starring Cantinflas, Silvia Pinal and Carlos Martínez Baena.

The portero or doorman of a humble neighborhood (Cantinflas) also writes letters to his neighbors for extra money.

The doorman wants his neighbor to be happy, so he writes letters to her, but signing as her military admirer.

Meanwhile, the doorman has a plan for her to walk again, by earning money at the horse races to pay for her operation.

John Mraz noted that the film was one of two in which Cantinflas made "disparaging, if humorous remarks" about the pachuco style popularized by fellow comedian Germán Valdés ("Tin-Tan"), the other being If I Were a Congressman.
