Leonardo Favio - Biography
Fuad Jorge Jury (28 May 1938 – 5 November 2012), commonly known as Leonardo Favio was an Argentine singer, actor, film director and screenwriter.
Much beloved in Latin America, he was one of the most successful Argentine singers in the 1960s and 1970s with big hits like Ding, dong estas cosas del amor (with Carola).
Without detriment to his outstanding career as a singer and songwriter, at the time he began to sing in public, he was already an established film director. His first feature movie - Chronicle of a Boy Alone - and the second one - El romance del Aniceto y la Francisca - compete in the consensus of Argentine critics to be considered the best Argentine movie of all times, while the agreement is almost unanimous in considering Leonardo Favio as the best Argentine movie director of all times.
Later, he would film: El Dependiente, Juan Moreira, Nazareno Cruz y el Lobo, Soñar Soñar, Gatica el Mono, Perón Sinfonía de un Sentimiento and Aniceto (a valet version of El romance...).
