Carlos Vander Tolosa was a Filipino director. Tolosa was the only movie director who successfully launched the three biggest movie studios at the advent of talking pictures: Parlatone-Hispano Filipino with “Diwata ng Karagatan,” 1936; Sampaguita Pictures Inc. with “Bituing Marikit,” 1938, and LVN Pictures with Giliw Ko,” 1939.

After the war, he returned to Sampaguita Pictures and made it his home studio. He directed a remake of his pre-war film, “Bituing Marikit,” Reprising the roles of Elsa Oria and Ely Ramos was the new love team of Amalia Fuentes and Juancho Gutierrez. Then he converted the Vera Perez gardens in the Gilmore studio into a jungle in the heart of the metropolis for “Tanzan the Mighty,” starring Dolphy in the title role. It was so successful that a sequel was made two years later, “Tanzan Versus Tarsan.”

Before he died in the mid-’60s, Tolosa directed a mother-and-daughter team-up of Carmen Rosales and Susan Roces with Rosemarie in “The Dolly Sisters,” and true to his DeMille form, he also made a parody of Hollywood’s “Gunfight at OK Corral” by way of the Filipino cowboy comedy film, “Barilan sa Baboy Koral” starring Dolphy and Panchito.
