The Abandoned (Spanish: Las Abandonadas) is a 1945 Mexican film, directed and co-written by Emilio Fernández, starring Dolores del Río and Pedro Armendáriz.

Margarita (Dolores del Río) is a young woman abandoned by her fiancé.

While Fernandez mixed stories that he had seen on the screen with events of the Mexican Revolution, producer Agustrín J. Fink became ill. A cloud of pessimism clouded preparations for the shooting, as the budget went over one million pesos, much of it invested in very expensive clothes that a Hollywood designer drew up for the showcasing of Dolores del Río.

Efforts to save Fink's life were useless, and the producer died three weeks before the shooting began.

Finally, in March 1945-and favored by the scandal The Abandoned was released to great acclaim.
