Maganda ang pelikulang ito.
ReplyDeleteThis was the first film where I saw Rosa del Rosario. And in all fairness, I was very much impressed with her performance. She was an all-natural. Her execution of her character was excellent, with whatever kind of scene she was in.
ReplyDeleteI was also wondering if she was also the one singing in the musical numbers? If she was, then that would complete my total admiration for her.
Aside from that, she and Rogelio dela Rosa looked very well on-screen. Napaka-adorable nilang tingnan, kahit na po hindi sila kasing-tindi ng tandem ni Rogelio dela Rosa at Carmen Rosales. There's something with the two of them that makes them look so romantic, so unforgettable. Perhaps it's also with the fact that they were each other's first tandem with their first films. Basta, dito ko po talaga nakita ang husay nila Rogelio dela Rosa at Rosa del Rosario... Dito ko na rin nalaman kung bakit naging "Queen of the Philippine Cinema" si Rosa, and she certainly deserved having that title.
Ang baduy naman ng movie na ito, kasing baduy ni Sam, hehehe
ReplyDeleteBaduy? I don't think so. Mawalang-galang na po pero hindi po ako sumasang-ayon diyan.
ReplyDeleteMalayo naman sa kabaduyan ang isang pelikulang ito. Maganda nga ang ipinapalabas dito, kasi wagas talaga yung pagpapakita ng mga tradisyon at paniniwala ng mga Pilipino nung panahong 'yun. Siguro kung baduy, kasi siyempre luma eh; karamihan ng mga kalumaan naman itinuturing na baduy ng iba na kagaya po ninyo. Perhaps, for some, the word "old" is synonymous with "baduy" (or whatever equivalent English word there is). Pero kung pagmamasdan lang po natin 'yan nang maigi, masasabing punung-puno ng kagandahan ang pelikulang ito. Bagaman, inaamin ko na medyo nagkulang din sa nilalaman ng kwento.
Ganito pa nga po dapat ang ipinapanood natin sa mga gaya kong kabataan ngayon. Para mamulat na sila nang husto kung gaano talaga katindi ang pagpapahalaga ng mga Pilipino noon sa kultura at sa tradisyon nila; at kung gaano karikit at ka-tiwasay ang buhay noon. Baka sakaling makatulong din ito para ibalik o ipreserba man lang ang sinaunang kabuhayan dito sa bansa natin. Himala nang maituturing kung may makita pa tayong ganyang kalakaran ng buhay sa ngayon.
That's true Sam... Very well said... I'm behind you 100 percent. Young moviegoers should be educated and be made to realize the value and importance of cinema in our culture and in our lives. Thanks Sam!
ReplyDeleteBaduy? ang pelikulang ito ay nagpapakita ng mga tradisyon at kultura ng mga Pilipino noon na ngayon ay pawala na. Tulad ng pagmamahal sa Diyos, panghaharana, magandang trato sa mga bisita, paggalang sa matatanda atbp. Wala nang ganitong pelikula ngayon dahil karamihan ngayon ay puro pacute, paingles ingles na mga characters, at puro kalandian. tsk.
ReplyDeleteSam B... pati comment mo e ang baduy pa rin,....
ReplyDeleteTo the anonymous person/s who seems/ to maintain a noticeable attention to what I say:
ReplyDeleteIf that's the case, at least I still have people within my league. Not only the three people here who expressed their positive insights, but the legion of many other Filipinos out there who never went tired in giving IMPORTANCE and RESPECT to the culture and tradition we used to have. What about you?
And besides, can't you think of any word to say aside from "baduy?"
Oh, well. No matter what you, or perhaps even other entity might say against these things, it will do nothing at all. Say what you want to say; I really don't have a control over that matter. The hell I care, anyway? Keber ko naman po, 'di ba? Ano naman kung baduy ito sa pananaw ng ibang nilalang? Sa, ito talaga ang gusto ko at ito ang pinagkakainteresan ko nang husto. Kanya-kanyang trip lang po 'yan, ika nga. At eto ang trip kong talaga. Wala na lang po sigurong basagan ng trip, ano?
I agree with you Sam, if people have nothing good to say they should just be quiet and keep the comments to themselves... Seriously people just need to show respect... Shame on this person and knowing that he/she is filipino themselves... why you freaking hating your own culture and tradition... you should even be proud of it...
