Love story inspired by Ilonggo folk song

June 26, 2011 | 12:00am

The Ilonggo folk song Dandansoy (Unfaithful) speaks of the pain of unrequited love. The song inspired the 1965 movie of the same title, starring Susan Roces and Bob Soler.

Dandansoy is familiar to Susan, being an Ilongga (from Bacolod).

While the song overflows with sadness, the movie had a happy tune, light romance filled with music and laughter, with just a touch of drama. — RKC
