A La Gran Muñeca is a tango (music: Jesus Ventura, Lyrics: Miguel F. Oses) written for a musical revue of the same name that debuted August 1st, 1919 in the theater Buenos Aires. The title has nothing to do with wrists or jockey's nicknames (by the way, Irineo Leguisamo's was 'El Pulpo' not "Muñeca"; I don't know if Eduardo Jara had one). The musical's libretto was not original in that the same idea had been explored in other works such as La Poupée and Coppélia (and a few years later, in several episodes of The Twilight Zone ;-), that is, a toy store in which the dolls come alive. The music and choreography (of 62 dolls!!), however, turned it into the hit of the season.
