Mary Metaxa (Greek: Μαίρη Μεταξά) was a Greek actress. She was born in 1912 in Eastern Rumelia and died in Athens on January 10, 1987. Characteristic are the roles she played in Greek cinema as the Constantinopolitan - and most often overprotective - mother of Kostas Voutsas. In fact, Kostas Voutsas was the one who was close to Mary Metaxa when she passed away. She had a significant appearance in the film 20 Women and Me. Her first appearance in cinema was in 1958 in the film Our Lady the Midwife in the role of a desperate village mother who has brought her baby to be cared for by the midwife -Georgia Vassiliadou-. Her last appearance was in 1980 in the film Kotsos in the EEC in the role of Mrs. Evropaidou. She also appeared in the legendary TV series Our Neighborhood and once again in the role of Kostas Voutsas' mother in the series The Dreamer. In total, she acted in 40 films.

This immensely successful remake of the 1929 foustanella classic was directed by Dinos Dimopoulos and quickly established its stars (Dimitris Papamichael and the beautiful Aliki Vouyouklaki) as the Greek cinema's top box-office draws. The story itself rigidly follows the conventions of its subgenre, although because Greek filmmakers were still churning out foustanellas for decades afterward, it hardly seems more dated than the original. Once again, it tells the tale of Mitros (Titos Vandis), a wealthy herd owner with a foster daughter named Astero (Vouyouklaki) whom he marries off to another herd owner, despite the fact that she and his son Thimios (Papamichael) are desperately in love. The other herd owner dies and Astero loses her mind a bit (although she doesn't wig out quite as spectacularly as Aliki Theodoridou in the silent original), but Mitros finally comes to the right decision and allows the children to marry.
