MORE ON PRE-WAR TAGALOG MOVIES: MILA DEL SOL, FRED CORTES, ESTER MAGALONA IN "IBONG ADARNA" (1941)

For the first time in 1941 color was introduced in local cinema via Ibong Adarna produced by LVN Pictures. The process, however, did not use actual color film negative; the colors were hand-painted, frame-by-frame, on certain scenes to depict an enchanted bird in all its rainbow glory.

RICHARD ABELARDO: VISUAL EFFECTS MAN PAR EXCELLENCE

Left- "El Diablo" (1949)- Stars Leopoldo Salcedo, Rebecca Gonzales and Alfonso Carvajal/ Directed by Richard Abelardo

Right- "Mutya ng Pasig" (1950)- Stars Jose Padilla, Jr., Rebecca Gonzales, Teody Belarmino and Delia Razon/ Directed by Richard Abelardo

The changing colors of the painted bird and the princes turning into stone in Ibong Adarna, the gangplank over a deep chasm in Prinsesa Urduja, the castle in the air in Prinsesa Basahan, the transformation of Jaime de la Rosa in Taong Paniki, the parting of the Red Sea in Tungkod ni Moises, and the rampaging monster in Tuko sa Madre Kakaw- these are some of the cinematic memories created by Richard Abelardo.

Richard Abelardo - or Mang Kandong to his intimates - is a visual effects man par excellence who pioneered in special effects in the late thirties to fifties and taught the craft to his relatives (brother-in-law Teody Carmona, brother Bayani Abelardo and nephew Benjamin Resella), later important film artists in this field. Richard was born on September 29, 1902 in Bulacan. He learned scene design from his father, Juan Abelardo, the sculptor of the Biak na Bato monument and the foremost scenic artist of his time. His father painted the backdrops of zarzuelas and stage presentations at the Zorilla and other theaters. Early in his teens, he became scenic artist for a photo studio. He was commissioned to do the sets of a silent film being photographed by Ricardo Marcelino. However, the production wasn't finished, but this firmed his resolve to go to Hollywood. He learned to play the saxophone in first cousin Nicanor Abelardo's orchestra and applied as musician in a band playing aboard a President liner. In 1923, he jumped ship in San Francisco and motored to Hollywood.
Because of his-artistic abilities, he became a Union member and was allowed to work in a number of Hollywood productions at Warner Brothers and Universal. Among the films he worked on are The Cat and the Fiddle, Footlight Parade (1933), One Night of Love and Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times.
Because he wanted to see his ailing parents, he went back to Manila in 1936. He was invited by Vicente Salumbides to work on his Florante at Laura (1939). For this, he created the domed palaces of the fictitious royalty. He worked at X'OTIC when it opened in 1939 and was later summoned by his kababayan Dona Sisang to work on Ibong Adarna. He introduced the crane to local filmdom in the movie Palaris and background projection in Ibong Adarna. After the war, he opted to stay in the Philippines, working for Palaris Productions, Fernando Poe Sr.'s movie company. He directed his first film for him in 1948 with Malikmata with Jaime de la Rosa. Dona Sisang got him to direct Engkantada (1948) for LVN, about archaeologists stumbling upon the fabled kingdom of Mu ruled by centuries-old Lilia Dizon. As it was the last film of Lilian Velez, it was a big hit at the box-office. His career as film director already established, he, however, continued to do special effects. In 1950, he worked on Fritz Lang's An American Guerrilla in the Philippines.
He collaborated with Botong Francisco on two films which he directed: Haring Kobra (1950) and Higit sa Korona (1956). For the former, the duo created stupas and other Balinese structures to visualize a mythical country south of the Philippines. For the latter, they recreated the Egypt of the Pharoah. They also worked on the big LVN movies directed by Gregorio Fernandez and Lou Salvador Sr. For Doce Pares, they built a Moorish palace atop Intramuros. For Rodrigo de Villa and Prinsipe Tenoso, they had mattes of medieval kingdoms.

"Ang Nuno sa Punso" (1950)- Stars Mila del Sol, Jaime dela Rosa, Gil de Leon, Eusebio Gomez, Lila Luna/ Directed by Richard Abelardo

Richard also pioneered in prosthetics with the hairy face of Jaime de la Rosa in Taong Paniki (1952) and the giant reptile in Tuko sa Madre Kakaw (1959). For Big Shot, he developed a special kind of trick photography that would show dancers atop a ceiling. Aside from films, Richard designed the sets of some theatrical productions, especially those of Bert Avellana's Barangay Theater Guild.

Clearly, Richard Abelardo's achievements have enriched Philippine cinema. (Agustin Sotto/ Manunuri ng Pelikulang Pilipino)

BABALU'S FIRST CRACK AT STARDOM

Babalu is Pablito Sarmiento, another Dolphy sidekick best remembered for his longer than normal chin that was part of his comedic charm. He first worked as the driver for Panchito, where the comedy king discovered his natural knack for telling jokes, and then gave him a featured role on the television show Buhay Artista. He was introduced in 1965 in the movie Genghis Bond.

Genghis Bond (1965)- Stars Dolphy, Alona Alegre, Lucita Soriano, Val magno, Chona Delgado, Aruray/ Introducing Babalu/ Directed by Luis San Juan

From then on, he appeared mostly in Dolphy movies until in the 70s where he was given some important and meaty roles, in such movies as Boyoyoy, Love Pinoy Style, Drakula Goes to RP and Ang Hiwaga ng Ibong Adarna.

In 1975, Babalu was given his biggest break and first starring role in Doctor, Doctor I am Sick, his first crack at stardom. After two or three starring roles movies however, his career turned sour. Like most stars that gained instant popularity, success somehow got to his head. But you can’t put a good and talented comedian down forever, and in the 80s made a comeback in several Dolphy movies. Since then, Babalu appeared in several lead roles in countless movies and television shows, and established himself as one of the Philippines' most respected comedians.

RIP, CARLOS SALAZAR, 90/ SELECTED FILMOGRAPHY (1952- 1960)

Carlos “Rusty” Salazar, the former movie actor who rose to fame in the 1950s, passed away today, April 7, his family confirmed.

The actor’s son Anton Ram Fernandez Roldan revealed Salazar’s passing while showing throwback pictures of his father on his Facebook page today, April 7. Roldan did not state the cause of Salazar’s death, though he expressed happiness that Salazar will be with his late wife, commercial model Carmen “Menchu” Fernandez.

“You are now with Mama, continue your infinite love in Heaven. We love you Papa, I’m lucky to have you as my Papa,” Roldan addressed his departed father. “Rest in Peace. We Love you ’til eternity. ‘Til we meet again.”

Salazar began his career in LVN Pictures in the 1950s and worked with actors Delia Razon, Nestor de Villa and Nida Blanca, among others. He appeared in various films including “Abarinding” and “Hiram na Kasintahan” in 1954, as well as “Ang Ibong Adarna” in 1955.

He eventually left behind his career in show business to focus on his family, as seen in his interview with Doris Bigornia for ABS-CBN’s “Mutya ng Masa” back in 2014.  /ra
