El ruiseñor del barrio (1952)

This musical from Director Jaime Salvador primarily showcases the rather considerable and impressive vocal talents of its young star, Pinky Molina. Miss Molina plays Beatriz Ricardi, a singing, dancing and piano-playing child prodigy who is doted on by her loving father, (Armando Calva), who just wants his daughter to be happy. However, the girl's patron and teachers all believe that they know best when it comes to nurturing her God-given talents and blossoming musical career. Veteran actors such as Prudencia Griffell, Oscar Pulido, Angel Garasa and Jose Pulido also lend their own talents to this cinematic endeavor that ultimately did little to advance the child's overall success in the film industry thereafter.
