Muñecas De Medianoche
''Midnight Dolls'' (Spanish: ''Muñecas de medianoche'') is a 1979 Mexican erotic drama film directed by Rafael Portillo and starring Jorge Rivero, Isela Vega, and Sasha Montenegro. The film belongs to a genre that has been described as "cabaratera film", popular in the 1950s and then again in the 1970s: "These movies were instant successes due to their half-nudity, implied eroticism, musical backgrounds, sensual dancing, and foul language", commented Andrew Grant Wood.
