Octavio Silos

Octavio Silos worked in the Manila studios from the end of the twenties, first as a screenwriter and as an actor, then as a director from 1937, for Parlatone Hispano-Filipino, for Sampaguita and for Excelsior. In 1946 he made the first film Sampaguita produced after the war and remained attached to that company until the sixties, when younger filmmakers counted him among their masters. More than a hundred titles are attributed to him. His date of birth is established by no source that can be consulted; he died on 11 January 1971.
