EXPLAINER: CinemaOne. Cinemanila.
I missed every local movie in this year's CinemaOne and Cinemanila international film festivals, although I covered them for PEP.ph.*
My priorities have changed.
I am a completist. Given time, I would have watched the 13 entries in CinemaOne, and the other entries in Cinemanila, just like how I saw all the Cinemalaya 2012 entries by spending whole days in CCP.
But I chose to spend time elsewhere.
I returned to training at the gym last October. I go to Maic's in Marikina, and I have my own trainer, who is available in the afternoons.
I go to the gym because it makes me happy to see progress. Plus I live alone (and work alone most of the time) so the gym is the only place where I connect with other beings.
In short, my priority now is this:
WORK > GYM > FAMILY > MOVIES > EVERYTHING ELSE.
Anyway, this blog was created to review local mainstream movies, and I guess I haven't left anything out yet.
The next MMFF is also just around the corner, and I won't miss any of those films. They would run for two to three weeks, so there's plenty of time to see all of them.
My reviews of MMFF movies will be posted here as soon as I see them.
* I covered CinemaOne's awards night, and Cinemanila's press briefings, opening ceremony, and awards night.
