P. Ramlee (1962) Ibu Mertuaku [My Mother-in-Law]

"Jangan Tinggal Daku" (Don't Leave Me)

The film's story revolves around the tragic love affair between Kassim Selamat, a poor musician, and Sabariah, the only daughter of a wealthy woman. The movie is notable in that the opening act starts out as a light-hearted romantic comedy, but at the 30 minute mark turns into a dramatic tragedy. Like a number of P. Ramlee's works, the film criticizes the unofficial caste system that separates the wealthy from the poor.

This film won two awards during the 10th Asian Film Festival Tokyo in 1962 for "Most Versatile Talent" - P. Ramlee & "Best Black and White Photography" - Abu Bakar Ali. This film was noted as a "Special Mention" during the International Film Festival, Paris in 1965.

P. Ramlee (1962) Ibu Mertuaku [My Mother-in-Law] was directed by P. Ramlee.

English subtitles/lyrics by asean1984.

  • Best S.E.Asian ...

    Best S.E.Asian Artiste (^.^) His talents are so under appreciated, especially by Western (English speaking) audiences. I hope subtitling his work might garner a wider appeal for his works to be appreciated and hopefully take the stand as one great director of his time.
