La feria de Jalisco
1948 ยท 1 hr 40 mins
This lighthearted 1 hour and forty minute musical-comedy was written by its Director, Chano Urueta and was first released on May 20, 1948. Its female lead, is a Cuban-born beauty with the stage name of Ninion Seviilla. She also became one of the original "Rumberas", who made this genre of dance musicals so popular with audiences during the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema. In essence, she was the Latina Jennifer Gray, doing the "dirty dancing" moves of her day. Unlike herself however, the actress's male counterpart, Ramon Armengod rose to fame in the place where he was born and raised. This Island girl and native Mexican boy put their considerable talents, good looks and physical chemistry to good use with the other attractive cast members, which include Emma Roldan, Jose Pulido and Aurora Walker.
Director: Chano Urueta
