Most of it is about the making of the film, I felt there is enough
about Puerto Vallarta (and the area) in 1964 to be of interest to
this message board.
I had always thought that it was just the movie that launched Puerto
Vallarta but it was more to do with tabloid stuff, ".....During
the filming, the US media gave extensive coverage to Elizabeth Taylor's
extramarital affair with Richard Burton, as well as covering the frequent
fighting between Huston and the film's four stars. The subsequent
publicity helped put Puerto Vallarta on the map for US tourists."
