Bullfighter and the Lady

Bullfighter and the Lady is a 1951 drama romance sport film directed and written by Budd Boetticher starring Robert Stack, Joy Page and Gilbert Roland.

Chuck Regan (Robert Stack), a young American film producer travels to Mexico, where he takes up bullfighting to impress a local beauty, Anita de la Vega (Joy Page).

Manolo Estrada (Gilbert Roland), an aging matador, reluctantly agrees to teach the brash, self-centered Regan.

Boetticher had been a bullfighter and told his life story to Ray Nazarro when working as an assistant director to the latter at Columbia.

For the film's American theatrical release, Bullfighter was cut to 87 minutes in order to share a double bill.
