"Usted tiene la cara de chiva."
I don't know the meaning of chiva. The sentence is from a 1938 movie Torchy Blane in Panama.

Hola zoltán: solo añadir que no sería una palabra muy corriente de usar en España.

I am sorry, but I can answer my own question. Finally, I got to the end of the movie, where one charter said chiva means nanny goat. That is "You have the face of a nanny goat". The guy who had this message on the back of a business card that he showed around to lovely ladies had his face slapped often.
