"Pitong Kalbaryo ni Inang" was VP Pictures' Lenten offering in 1962. "The dramatic story of a mother who bore her seven calvaries --- beyond human endurance," says the blurb. The great Rosa Mia, in a heart-wrenching performance, portrayed a loving and martyred mother to her seven children.

Oh, wow. I've seen this in Bicol when I was a child. Rosa Mia used to be the most lachrymose mother in Tagalog movies. I also have a copy of INANG MAHAL, and you would think that she was old in that film (but she was onlt in her 20s then), and in fact, VAN DE LEON, her co-star, was older than she.
My favorite tagalog Holy Week film is a low-key film starring LOLITA RODRIGUEZ and JAY ILAGAN, called IGINUHIT SA BUHANGIN. Directed by ARMANDO V. DE GUZMAN.
