Herbert Wydham, a cameraman took “video shots”
of the Mayor then, Albert Yearsley and Mr.Gross
opened the Majestic and Zorilla theaters to show a
full length film entitled “Life of Rizal”. His apprentice
Jose Nepumoceno later bought the camera
equipment from Mr.Gross and attempted to film with
sound, but this was hardly audible since this was
barely “talkies age”

Films from holywood dominated these early pre-war

theaters. Stars such as Clark Gable, Shirley Temple,
Beth Davis and other influenced the lifestyles and
the dreams of the Filipinos in the city, Vicente
Salumbides along with Nepumuceno latter becamed
