The movie biography of Richie Valens called La Bamba opens in US theatres…




The music was performed by Los Lobos…  



 The film starred Lou Diamond Phillips as Valens

 









and Esai Morales as Ritchie's older brother Bob…
 The production had the full support of the Valenzuela family and Bob and Connie Valenzuela even came to the set to help the actors portray their characters correctly…
