Ki randizott Armando Bó-szel?

Armando Bó (3 May 1914 – 8 October 1981) was an Argentine film actor, director, producer, screenwriter and score composer. He began his career as an actor and producer during the Golden Age of Argentine cinema of the 1930s and 1940s. In 1956, Bó met Isabel Sarli and cast her as the lead actress in his film Thunder Among the Leaves (1957), in which she made the first full frontal nude in the history of Argentine cinema. Bó and Sarli became both romantic and commercial partners, and the duo turned to the sexploitation genre in the 1960s and 1970s, these films being considered emblematic of the genre.

Bó's son is the actor/producer Víctor Bó and his grandson is the screenwriter and director Armando Bó.

Hilda Isabel Gorrindo Sarli (Spanish: [isaˈβel ˈsaɾli]; 9 July 1929 – 25 June 2019), nicknamed Coca, was an Argentine actress. She was known for starring in several sexploitation films by Armando Bó, especially in the 1960s and 1970s. She began her career as a model, becoming Miss Argentina and reaching the semi-finals of Miss Universe 1955. She was discovered by Bó in 1956 and made her acting debut the following year with Thunder Among the Leaves, in which a controversial nude scene featuring Sarli made it the first film to feature full frontal nudity in Argentine cinema.

As the muse and protagonist of Bó's films, Sarli became the quintessential sex symbol of her country and a popular figure worldwide. After Bó's death in 1981, Sarli virtually retired from acting until the 1990s, when she appeared in a handful of film roles and TV cameos before her death in 2019. Since the year 2000 and onwards, her films have been revalued for their camp and kitsch content and are recognised as cult classics, while Sarli has established herself as a pop icon.
