REMEMBER WHEN? - Danny Dolor - The Philippine Star
October 20, 2013 | 12:00am

One of several actors built up as Pinoy James Bond was Romano Castellvi. Fast with the gun and irresistible to sexy belles.

Romano was Lady Killer in 1965, the ad obviously patterned after James Bond movies, originated by Sean Connery, the best 007 ever.

The sexy belles in Lady Killer were Maggie de la Riva, Stella Suarez and Lourdes Medel.

In the ’70s, Romano and wife Jean Lopez migrated to Canada and later relocated to the US.

Lady Killer was produced, written and directed by Danny Zialcita. — RKC
