Babae... Sa Likod ng Salamin (lit. 'Lady... behind the mirror') is a 1976 Filipino drama film directed by Cesar J. Amigo from a script by Amigo and producer Reuben Canoy. Starring Charito Solis, Dindo Fernando, Alona Alegre and Perla Bautista, it is about a woman with two personas: Laura, a faithful wife in the day, and Lorna, a mistress of another at night. The film was released in June 1976, and was the penultimate film written or directed by Amigo.[1]
Critic Justino Dormiendo gave Babae... a negative review, expressing disappointment in the film's standard quality "sex drama" despite the talented cast and the involvement of accomplished writers Amigo and Canoy.
