Augusto Salvador, one of the most prolific editors of the film industry, passed on Monday, June 7, leaving behind a wealth of classics that defined Philippine cinema from the 1970s to 2000s.
Among the films that Salvador edited were Lino Brocka’s “Insiang,” Fernando Poe Jr.’s “Ang Probinsyano,” and Ishmael Bernal’s “Relasyon.” “Gusto ko pong maalala siya bilang direktor na mabuting makisama sa kanyang mga artista at higit sa lahat napakabait sa kanyang staff hanggang sa utility," Cayanan told ABSCBN News Wednesday, also citing the quality of his craft over the decades.
Salvador, who last directed Revilla’s “Ang Panday” and the FPJ-Efren Bata Reyes movie “Pakners,” among others, in the early 2000s, distinguished himself as a prolific and reliable movie editor who crossed over many film genres since the 1960s. He was the go-to editor of FPJ in such movies as “Asedillo,” “Bontoc,” “Durugin si Totoy Bato,” “Perlas Ng Silangan,” and “Roman Rapido.”
