La sombra del otro ("The Shadow of the Other") is a 1957 Mexican film. It was produced by Fernando de Fuentes. The film stars Viruta and Capulina, as themselves, in the lead roles.
Viruta and Capulina are the owners of a cafeteria and combine this business with that of assistants to an incipient boxer, whom they accompany in his hard training sessions, as he considers them his good luck talismans, but after that. They meet two women, Celicia and Alejandra.
The film is remembered noted as a boxing film and for the presence of Moreno in the cast.[1][2]
