Ito pala ang naunang Pinoy Western. Meron pa silang isa, yung ASINTADO, by the same team. Thanks for reminding us.

Auggie, according to Efren Reyes Jr. in a recent interview, it was his dad, Efren Sr. who made the first Pinoy western in 1950 titled Bandido. I'll be posting that particular movie ad in my succeeding posts. His colleagues then were pessimistic and saw it as irrelevant as there were no cowboys in this country. The movie, as it turned out made money and many followed.
ReplyDeleteGanoon ba ? I'm entirely clueless about BANDIDO....
