Movie Still: Jikiri (1962)

Jikiri (1962)

Pancho Magalona and Charito Solis are best remembered in El Filibusterismo, directed by Gerry de Leon and produced by Bayanihan/Arriva Films.

But they also starred in several LVN and Dalisay movies, among them Jikiri (1962) with Pancho playing a Muslim warrior and Charito, his love interest.

‘The true and bloody saga of one man who defied the might of the Constabulary…of one name that made the nation tremble,’ the blurb read.

When LVN closed shop in the early ‘60s due to labor problems, Dalisay was set up, using LVN studio and stars. — RKC
