I created this post about the movie Mrs Teresa Abad, Ako Po Si Bing last Dec 21, 2012 and I saw last night that it was reposted without any acknowledgement whatsoever : ( and even my acknowledgement from the source of the poster was removed. Maybe just a little thoughtful concern : )

Walang Sugat was first published in 1898 written by Filipino playwright, Severino Reyes. Walang Sugat is set during the Philippine Revolution against Spain. The play is about the injustices received by Filipinos from the Spanish colonial rulers. Apart from the issue of politics, revolution, and nationalism, Walang Sugat is also a love story. It features the romance and love affair between Tenyong and Julia.

Walang Sugat had been adapted into film twice, namely in 1939 and in 1957. The 1939 film version was produced by Filippine Productions, and was directed by Enrique Herrera-Dávila, and was starred by Filipino actors Rosa del Rosario and Leopoldo Salcedo. The 1957 movie version of Walang Sugat was produced by LVN Pictures, under the direction of Lamberto V. Avellana.

25 Loveliest Faces In The Philippine Showbiz

                 I just found this old YES magazine on top of our table...akalain mo! :-)
 

 25 Loveliest Faces In The Philippine Showbiz

Charito Solis 

She was with her near-perfect face, luminous. Passionate and tempestuous in life as in her art, she reigned as drama queen at LVN, where she was a favorite of the studio matriarch, Dona Sisang de Leon. A shy provincial girl when launched in the title role Nina Bonita, she developed into a formidable actress, sensual and ravishing. A true icon of Philippine cinema, she is one of its most highly honored actresses.

Trivia - Krisalis (1957)

           (From the movie Krisalis - Rebecca Del Rio, Nestor de Villa and Charito Solis)

"The Most Exciting Of All Women" ---That was how Charito Solis was billed in LVN’s Krisalis (1957), where she played the title role. Indeed, Charito was at the peak of her beauty, flawless complexion, China-doll features, shapely figure. And a fine actress at that.

Written and directed by Susana C. de Guzman, Krisalis co-starred Nestor de Villa, Delia Razon, Jaime dela Rosa, Rebecca del Rio and Nita Javier.

‘We give you the bliss and the loveliness, the gentleness and listlessness of a woman in love as played by the most exciting of all women — Charito Solis in the title role.---article from RKC Remember When? PhilStar.com updated March 25, 2012

In 1956 Charito Solis played a Korean war bride in the movie Ulilang Bituin opposite Mario Montenegro. Little did we know that this was a true-to-life story of Rocky Flores and Kim Chung Ae (baptized as Fideliza).

"Wooed by Rocky Flores relentlessly, Fideliza agreed to get married and make Manila her new home. The romance was transformed into a heartwarming movie with Ms. Charito Solis taking on the role of Fideliza."

"In the early ‘70s, Fedeliza made her mark in the annals of Manila’s restaurant history by opening a Korean Restaurant located in Jupiter St. Makati."

Do you know the name of this famous restaurant?

(Photo of Rocky and Fedeliza is from the FB fanpage of the Koren Restaurant)
