Producer Rogelio Agrasánchez Linage passed away on 30 December 2021. Agrasánchez was born in August 1934 in Puebla. He originally began workingin the film industry at the age of 15
and organised his own distribution company; he would also receive producing credit as early as Mi novio es un salvaje (1953) and Aventuras del Guardian aka Yanko en el guardían de la selva (1962). In 1969 Agrasánchez purchased Cin. Grovas,a company dating back to the 1930s—Tres noches de locura, made in 1969, credits both Rogelio Agrasánchez and Jesús Grovas as producer, and Los Campeones justicieros (1970) is also listed as a Grovas film. Superzán el invencible (1971), made in Puebla, was probably the first film bearing the Producciones Fílmicas Agrásánchez label. This company made more than 5 dozen features over the next two decades (including 8 in 1977 and 10 in 1983). A number of these were shot in Texas, while others were filmed in Guatemala.
