Mirada de mujer (English: The Gaze of a Woman) is a Mexican telenovela, which was produced by and broadcasted on TV Azteca in 1997. It is considered one of the best produced in the history of the television industry in Mexico. It came after a year after TV Azteca's first telenovela Nada personal and was the first telenovela in that TV station for its five stars, who had been working with Televisa prior to this production. In 2003 the sequel for this telenovela Mirada de mujer: El regreso was produced.

It is said to be the remake of the Colombian weekly drama "Señora Isabel" (1993), written by Mónica Agudelo.

Aside from enjoying wide viewership in Latin America, this was also transmitted in countries like Afghanistan and Israel. In India, this was shown by Sahara TV, dubbed in Hindi, under the title of Maria.

This telenovela is now being aired in the Philippines via ABS-CBN where it is dubbed in Filipino.

[edit] Synopsis

A woman stops in front of a mirror, she questions herself, inquires into the traces that her eyes have become, and what she sees paralyzes her. The reflex on the crystal tells her of a story full of dreams, full of promises, children and prosperity, but empty of passion.

That woman is Maria Ines. Nothing of what has occurred in her twenty seven years of marriage was moved by her own dreams. Her entire life has been one of dedication to her husband and children. She is fifty and her husband has found in another woman, half his age, freshness and intimacy. To his mistress he gives the vitality he thought was lost, to his wifne tiredness and failure. That man is Ignacio Millan. Maria Ines look at her present and discovers loneliness, although Paulina, her best friend encourages her to keep on living. She is surrounded by complaining grown ups (her children) and a mother that tells her she has not been capable of keeping her family together. She is Mamalena, Evangelina Elizondo. But Maria Ines is not alone. Someone starts looking for her. A man who is twenty years younger. This man is Alejandro, Ari Telch. Writer, father of a boy, with an enormous desire to plat life a treat, Alejandro is a man that fights in hie emotions and his work against hypocresy, falsehood or prohibition.

This is "Mirada de Mujer". An intimate story that none of us had the opportunity to view "through the keyhole". "Mirada de Mujer" is different, of the present time, its unbearable as only a mirror can be.


[edit] Theme Song

The telenovela also gave rise to the song Dime written by Armado Manzanero, and sung by Aranza, which became a great hit in Mexico, Puerto Rico and Central America, and which peaked at #22 in the U.S. Hot Latin Songs Chart. To this date the song is considered a classic, and arguably one of the most important songs to come out of a telenovela.

In the Philippines, the theme song used is "Bakit" ("Why"/"¿Por que?") which was sung by Rachelle Ann Go. The said song is one of the most requested songs in local Philippine airwaves.


[edit] "Dime"- Aranza

Dime, que es lo que está pasando
Si en algo te e fallado
Si fue la primavera
Lo que se me ha escapado
A caso en estos brazos
no te has acomodado
No encuentro la razón
De porque me has suplantado
O es que sepultaste nuestro Amor
Dime, si soy la responsable
Del tiempo trasncurrido
No tengo el pecho erguido
Ya no estoy tan deseable
Tal vez no he procurado
Hacer cosas extrañas
Tenderte algunas mañas
Pero ni un momento
He dejado de adorarte
Dime, que es lo que está pasando
Si en algo te e fallado
Oh si es que te olvidaste
Que yo fui aquella flor
Que en muchas primaveras
Tanta vida te dió.


[edit] "Bakit" - Rachelle Ann Go

I:
Ikaw,
Ang nagbibigay ligaya sa akin
Sa aking damdamin
Dala'y ngiti sa puso ko
Kapag ika'y kasama ko
II:
Sa tuwing ika'y nakikita
Biglang sumasaya
Lungkot ay nawawala
Nagtatanong ang puso ko
Ano kaya ito

Chorus:

Bakit hanap-hanap kita
Bakit hindi nagsasawa
Sa puso ko'y laging ikaw
Laging nais na matanaw
Bakit hindi nagbabago
Mayro'ng kaba sa puso ko
Ikaw na nga kaya
Mahal ko
(Repeat II)
(Repeat Chorus)
