The Life and Death of Dr. José P. Rizal

The Philippines' National Hero. I highly recommend that you view the award-winning "José Rizal" movie (in Tagalog, with English subtitles)
as directed by Marilou Diaz-Abaya http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Rizal_(film) to learn more about the man behind the monument.

While on holiday in the Philippines (from my homebase in Papua New Guinea) back in the 1970's, there was a big buzz about plans to make a
hollywood movie for international release on the life and times of Rizal starring Andy Garcia. I wonder what became of THAT proposed project?
