Try reading it again(at the other thread)... not unless pirated dvd is what you "really" have and you feel a grudge out of me finding it out? Therefore switch your answer to vcd aquisition?

Finally saw Lav Diaz' EBOLUSYON NG ISANG PAMILYANG PILIPINO. The longest film I've ever saw in one sitting with of course several bathroom breaks and eating inside the cinema.

I do hope to see also BATANG WESTSIDE next year.....

Got my copy finally of SHAME and SINNER OR SAINT thru the courtesy of Jojo de Vera...thanks man!

Will watch it tonight including BIYAYA NG LUPA, WHITE SLAVERY, SALOME.

Noel no Gallaga flick on your lists even SCORPIO NIGHTS?

Noel_Vera · « **Reply #129 on:** Jan 23, 2005 at 03:37 PM »

Scorpio was on my original list. Bumped it off in favor of the new entries. It would probably figure in my next twelve (along with Bagong Bayani, Segurista, Bakit Bughaw ang Langit, Bagong Hari, Bulaklak ng City Jail, Sisa, Babae sa Bubungang Lata, Pagdating sa Dulo, Salawahan, Aliw, Orapronobis, Bayan Ko, Ina Ka ng Anak Mo, the third segment of Tatlo, Dalawa, Isa, Sanda Wong, Kundiman ng Lahi, Biyaya ng Lupa, Genghis Khan, Bayaning Third World, Pagputi ng Uwak, Pagitim ng Tagak, etc.).

That's good man.

I still have to catch up with your lists but I do have a copy now of the ff: BIYAYA NG LUPA, SALAWAHAN, ALIW (again thru the kindness of Jojo) which are both Bernal flicks if only the print of some of our films are still intact and can be viewed. Most are already rotting and destroyed by the passing of years.

Arbitrarily, the next 13 (in descending order):

Bakit Bughaw ang Langit?
Sisa (O'Hara)
Bagong Bayani
Sawa sa Lumang Simboryo
Bagong Hari
Biyaya ng Lupa
Pagputi ng Uwak, Pagitim ng Tagak
Pagdating sa Dulo
Aliw
Scorpio Nights
Ang Magpakailanman
Genghis Khan
Kundiman ng Lahi

The list can change at any time.

I'll have to admit, it's a struggle not to make this and the earlier list an Mario O'Hara / Gerardo de Leon filmography, with maybe Insiang and Kisapmata thrown in (yes, that's how precarious Bernal's position is in my mind's pantheon--he's great, definitely, but I'm not feeling good about his works lately--might even have considered Aliw and Salawahan his best, if cooler judgment didn't prevail).

hi noel! what do you think of HIMALA? 'think i missed it from the list....

Noel_Vera · « **Reply #137 on:** Jan 25, 2005 at 02:08 PM »

I like Himala, but not for the first 24...at least for now.

Noel_Vera · « **Reply #138 on:** Jan 25, 2005 at 02:09 PM »

You don't know how hard it is for me not to include Kastilyong Buhangin.

JhunDV · « **Reply #139 on:** Jan 25, 2005 at 03:00 PM »

Hoping that there'll be DVD releases of the aforementioned films...

Noel_Vera · « **Reply #140 on:** Jan 25, 2005 at 03:35 PM »

We can hope.

At least you can see most of 'em in Cinema One. Or Cinema Paraiso, or even on the big screen in Pelikula at Lipunan.

and Noel no Oro, Plata, Mata on your lists.......

That makes MANILA BY NIGHT your best Bernal flick. HIMALA also has a broader approach. The only flaw in MANILA BY NIGHT I think are the extended love scenes for sheer indulgence.

Noel_Vera · « **Reply #142 on:** Jan 26, 2005 at 11:07 AM »

No, no Oro, Plata. I'm not a big fan.

I do think Himala is Bernal's most visual film, but I don't like him for his visual style. Which is why the Bernal I chose were the talkier ones.

JdelaCruz · « **Reply #143 on:** Jan 27, 2005 at 01:21 PM »

The Third Part of Shake, Rattle & Roll 2 entitled "Aswang" starring Manilyn Reynes, Anna Roces and Richard Gomez. Best pinoy horror flick ever in my book.

Do any of you guys have a copy of Pagdating sa Dulo? I'd love to watch that film again. It's been almost 15 years since I last saw it. I want to see something that would effectively wash away the bad taste of those Rory Quintos movies, hehe.

The print was still in pristine condition when I saw it at Pelikula at Lipunan a few years back. SOFIA was responsible for cleaning it, impressive directorial debut of Ishmael Bernal.

Noel_Vera · « **Reply #148 on:** Sep 13, 2005 at 12:28 PM »

They cleaned it? Good. Last time I saw it it was in pretty bad condition.

keating · « **Reply #149 on:** Sep 13, 2005 at 05:32 PM »

Yup, no signs of grain and specks. Rita Gomez delivered an excellent work here same with Eddie Garcia & Vic Vargas. Ms. Gomez seems to be Bernal's favorite actress, she's cast in every Bernal flick.

Garcia was hilarious as the filmmaker in PAGDATING SA DULO.
