Amor a la medida, (English: "Tailored Love") also known as El sastre, (English: "The Tailor") 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.
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.
Plot
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.
