Since ORO PLATA MATA celebrate its 20th anniversary, it is now the time to honor in my opinion the local counterpart of Steven Spielberg.....MR. PEQUE GALLAGA.
From his directorial debut, Binhi...to his epic masterpiece, "ORO PLATA MATA" to BAD BANANAS SA PUTING TABING...Virgin Forest...Scorpio Nights....Unfaithful Wife....Once Upon A time...the Manananggal episode in Shake Rattle & Roll... ISANG ARAW WALANG DIYOS....Tiyanak....Aswang....
His films are always excellent in terms of craftmanship and technical aspects. I do hope that there will be a sequel to "oro, plata, mata" and make it as his comeback movie.
He has done also some great mini-series on television particularly BORACAY AND CEBU. Also directed back on the late 80's about the Filipinos in the U.S. via Apple Pie, Patis, atbp.
