Amor a la medida, (English: "Tailored Love") also known as El sastre, (English: "The Tailor")[1] is a 1993 Mexican musical romantic drama film directed by Raúl Araiza and starring Los Tigres del Norte. It features a plot based on the 1950 Mexican film Vagabunda.[2]
It is the last feature film that Los Tigres del Norte starred in after appearing in films since 1978; subsequent productions they would appear in were recordings of their concerts.[3]
Plot[edit]
The musical band Los Tigres del Norte record an album. During the recordings, one of the members watches the film Vagabunda on television. Afterwards, he gets involved in a love affair with a woman with a dark past. At the end, it is revealed that the events of the film were a dream that the bandmember had after having fallen asleep while watching Vagabunda, whose plot is similar to his affair with the woman from his dream.
