Read the complete plot breakdown of Dicen que soy mujeriego (1949), including all key story events, major twists, and the ending explained in detail. Discover what really happened—and what it all means.

Doña Rosa Sara García rules a bustling Mexican ranch with a sharp tongue and a soft spot for family. The day kicks off with a jolt: a woman in a bed shouts, “My husband!” and a man bolts from the room, leaping out a window to reach his horse, while another woman on the street corners him with scolding and laughter, calling him a “canalla.” A kiss seals his escape, and the word haunts the air as the lover rides away. Across the village, a wedding procession winds from the cathedral, and the couple invites the priest to celebrate. The priest, ever dutiful, agrees to attend the reception that evening after a quick detour to Doña Rosa’s ranch for a huntsman’s errand—she’s sure he won’t abandon his flock when duty calls.

At the ranch, the formidable matriarch brassily grills her grandson’s keeper, Bartolo [Fernando Soto], a roly-poly servant who doubles as Pedro’s loyal sidekick. Doña Rosa is brutal yet affectionate, and her affection surfaces in small, comic cruelties—she teases, she commands, and she wields a walking stick like a baton. Pedro Dos Amantes [Pedro Infante] arrives with lipstick on his cheek, claiming he earned it from mangos rather than mischief. Doña Rosa’s tirade is relentless, but the warmth between grandmother and chosen family glimmers beneath the surface. The pair then reunite with the priest, whose politeness meets Doña Rosa’s unvarnished honesty. A moment of awkward humor follows when the priest is introduced to the “demons” of a house that humorously treats him as an outsider in his own way.

Seeking absolution in the wild, the trio heads out to hunt rabbits. Doña Rosa’s precise shot contrasts with the priest’s accidental disaster, as his shotgun misfires and takes down a donkey instead of a rabbit. The ridiculousness of the moment lands with a groan of shared embarrassment, and yet it softens into a genuine, human exchange about the limits of control and the joys of simple pleasures.

News arrives that Flor, a neighbor’s niece, is in crisis, and her uncle’s health is failing. Flor [Silvia Derbez] is a spirited, flirtatious force, and she looks to the priest for aid even as she teases Pedro, who is never far from trouble. The doctor’s grim pronouncement—that there is nothing more to be done—becomes a bitter irony when life keeps forcing them to choose between pride and care. Flor’s coming crisis threads together a web of desire and duty, and Doña Rosa uses every ounce of her experience to steer outcomes in her house and heart. When Flor learns that Pedro may be at a wedding feast, she worries about the consequences of his attention and hers in equal measure.

The wedding reception becomes a carnival of romance and rivalry. Pedro dances with one beauty after another, serenades them with a swaggering ballad about being labeled a womanizer, and receives a mocking note from “Anonimo,” a playful antagonist whose identity fuels the gossip mill. Bartolo’s mischief deepens the plot; he lingers at the edge of every scene, fanning the flames of Pedro’s escapades. In the saloon, a fiery dancer named Luciérnaga [Amalia Aguilar] electrifies the crowd with a hot performance. A patron’s bold kiss sparks a scuffle, and Pedro acts with chivalrous bravado, earning a grateful, if flirtatious, response from the dancer.

Flor’s plan to keep Pedro at bay runs into a stubborn, determined man who believes in his own charms. Flor enjoys the chase, yet she remains drawn to Pedro, even as Doña Rosa’s skepticism lingers. The music swells, and the crowd’s mood shifts as the couple’s future teeters on a knife’s edge. A dramatic turn occurs when Tucita, a small child riding on a mare brought by Doña Rosa, disarms the room with a letter declaring Pedro’s paternity in a way that rattles Flor and shocks everyone. Tucita [María Eugenia Llamas] carries a note signed “your victim,” and a photograph of Pedro dangles from a string around her neck, a haunting clue that drama and kinship are about to collide.

Dona Rosa, moved by tenderness more than temper, clutches Tucita and demands the truth. She guides Pedro into a private corridor of pain and possibility: the child could be his, or the child could be a mystery that tests their loyalties. Flor’s world cracks open; her heart bends toward Pedro, but the evidence of Tucita’s mother’s identity shakes her conviction. Flor confronts Pedro, and the air fills with a quiet ache as she questions fate, family, and the right to call someone father.

As the truth unravels, Pedro discovers a shocking deception. Luciérnaga had posed as Tucita’s mother, and Pablo [Rodolfo Landa], the town’s scheming mayor, had used her to pull Pedro into a trap. A dangerous plot to claim Tucita, to ruin Pedro, and to manipulate Flor drives the chaos. Pedro, feeling the sting of betrayal, confronts Pablo with a moral courage that surprises even himself. A tense confrontation ends with Pedro rescuing Luciérnaga from a pool of trouble and saving a life, even if it means rescuing the man who betrayed his trust.

In a climactic reckoning, Flor confronts the idea of Tucita’s paternity and the rumor that Pedro might not be the father she longs to trust. The village’s eyes watch, the people murmur, and Dona Rosa, hardened by years of watching others’ mistakes, admits her own blind spots. The couple’s future—thorny and uncertain—takes one more twist when Pablo attempts to win Flor by mocking propriety and reform. Yet Flor, aware of the damage his schemes could wreak, rejects him and chooses Pedro, vowing to marry him despite everything.

The wedding bells sparkle on the church steps, but the celebration—a symbol of union and forgiveness—takes an unexpected turn when another note from Anonimo surfaces. Pedro’s flippant response is interrupted by Flor’s declaration that she herself is Anonimo, a reveal that unsettles the crowd and punctures the rosy veneer. Tucita echoes the moment with her own exclamation of astonishment, “Válgame Dios!”—a refrain that underscores her enduring presence in Dona Rosa’s home, regardless of legal or marital status. In a final comic and affectionate beat, Dona Rosa drags an unrepentant Pedro away by the ear, reminding him—and us—that love, family, and responsibility can coexist in imperfect harmony.

This story blends tenderness with mischief, tradition with appetite, and pride with reconciliation. It celebrates the messy, exuberant heart of a village where everyone has a role, a secret, and a reason to believe in a future where love endures beyond scandal. It’s a warmly human comedy, anchored by Pedro Infante, sustained by Sara García, and nourished by the fiery spirit of Amalia Aguilar and the magnetic energy of Silvia Derbez, with a supporting chorus from Rodolfo Landa and Fernando Soto that keeps the film’s humor and heart in razor-sharp balance.
