The Mirror Has Two Faces is a 1996 American romance film produced and directed by Barbra Streisand, who also stars. The screenplay by Richard LaGravenese is based on the 1958 French film Le Miroir à deux faces written by André Cayatte and Gérard Oury, which focused on a homely woman who becomes a beauty, which creates problems in her marriage. The film also stars Jeff Bridges, Pierce Brosnan, George Segal, Mimi Rogers, Brenda Vaccaro and Lauren Bacall. The film received widespread criticism for being an ego production by Streisand who, with Marvin Hamlisch, Robert John "Mutt"... Lange, and Bryan Adams, also composed the film's theme song, "I Finally Found Someone", and sang it on the soundtrack with Adams. Rose Morgan , a shy, plain, middle-aged English literature professor at Columbia University, shares a home with her vain, overbearing mother Hannah . When her attractive sister Claire starts preparations for her wedding to Alex , Rose begins to feel her loveless life is empty.
