Taita Boves is a 2010 Venezuelan historical film loosely based on Boves el Urogallo, a novel by Francisco Herrera Luque.[1] Directed by Luis Alberto Lamata, the film starred Juvel Vielma, Wilfredo Cisneros, Danela Alvarado, Hector Manrique, Marcos Moreno, Alberto Alifa. Taita Boves chronicles a thirst for revenge that devastated a country. It tells the true story of José Tomás Boves, a cruel man who became a legend during the Venezuelan War of Independence, the most violent in the Americas. He went from seafarer to pirate, horse smuggler to prosperous merchant, prisoner to military chief. Spanish by birth, he spearheaded a grass roots troop of slaves, mulattoes, Indians and mestizos that crushed Simón Bolívar and his patriot army.
