Topic: Paragon Video - Releasing Filipino "Classics" of the '80s and more...

[ciconneguy]

saw dvd copies of ("T-Bird At Ako" and "Bakit Bughaw Ang Langit?"), 2 early 80s classics at sm dept store in fairview. clear kaya ang video? 150 pesos each.

Add to the list another PARAGON release... KASTILYONG BUHANGIN (dir. Mario O'Hara).

3 Nora Aunor classic movies, not bad for releasing them.

But they should work on the cover art, it's appalling. Dapat a la Criterion or Cinefilipino.

Paragon Video, surprises yet again with the release of KONTROBERSYAL (star. Charo Santos, Phillip Salvador, Gina Alajar) and BINATA SI MISTER, DALAGA SI MISIS (star. Christopher de Leon, Nora Aunor) by Lino Brocka.

150pesos.

[riverfan]

i bought both titles just today. They are not restored and remastered, just direct transfer. for 150pesos, not bad. Just don't expect nalang.

        It's really a surprise. Two good Lino Brocka films for only P150 each. Thanks for the post riverfan.

Beware of COMPANY OF WOMEN, the dvd is the mangled version.
