THE FIFTIES # 210: DANILO MONTES, ROSITA NOBLE AND PEDRO FAUSTINO IN "AGUA BENDITA (A RELIGIOUS OFFERING)" (1954)/ Re-posted
Not to be confused with the top rating 2010 ABS-CBN TV soap... Did you know that there was a movie made titled Agua Bendita?It was released and shown in 1954. Surprisingly, veteran character actor Pedro Faustino was in the lead role, his name above the title. Faustino was a familiar figure in many photoplays playing nominal characters as a priest, peasant or farmer, father or grandfather of lead stars.
"Agua Bendita (A Religious Offering)" (1954) FDR Productions Release Date June 13- 22, 1954/ Center Direction Paquito Bolero Cast Danilo Montes, Rosita Noble, Ludy Carmona, Roberto Rosales and Pedro Faustino/ with Engracio Ibarra, Estrella Noche, Vilma Herrera, Manuel Barbeyto, Antonio dela Mogueis and the comedy team of Berto and Tibo/ Introducing Lolita Bituin, Danny Roxas
Simon, Pedro Faustino enjoyed a long career in the movies playing father-figures, grandfathers and especially priests. Danilo Montes, Rosita Noble and Ludy Carmona became leads, but what happened to the other actors? There's even a newly introduced actress Lolita Bituin, who I never heard of and probably never made another movie.
Natatandaan ko kay Pedro Faustino, siya ang unang nag introduce sa akin na commercial na yung sarsaparilla ay pwedeng haluan ng hilaw na itlog saka mo iinumin ...
