First, I am almost sure that when this film was being planned,
Lea is in the height of her career. Good old, big time producer
thinks Lea's mere name associated in his/her 'pet project' will
make a swashbuckling hit no matter what the storyline is.
Needless to say, he/she thinks pinoy moviegoers are that stupid.
Lea is paired by 'pa-cute', teenage heart throb Aga Mulach.
Shooting begins and ends in just four weeks. Anything goes, "Tama
na yan, pwede na yan!". Result: a disaster. Lea's talents went
down the drain, just like she never had them in the first place,
even she and her faithful fans could not comprehend.
And where did the Filipino film industry and awarding bodies get
this idea that good acting depends on how many buckets of tears
actors and actresses could generate, or the number of neck veins
they could show in a pre-planned, 'famas-award' scene? Remember
Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man, and Charles Bronson in Streetfighter?
Man, they hardly said a word, but their facial
expressions/reactions say it all...
I have seen films produce by other, not so developed countries and in
comparison, theirs are not as 'bakya' as ours. Movies are too powerful to
ignore. They say it all...there is really nothing to hide.

Boy and girl fall madly in love in Manila. Girl leaves boy to seek her
fortune in the San Francisco Bay Area. Boy cannot live without girl;
quits a good job, and follows girl to America. To his rude surprise the
girl has a successful career even though life in America "is fast and very
competitive." And Lea, with her accent free, flawless command of English
is good for the part in one sense. In other scenes her pert, cute looks
belie the fact she is suffering from terminal yuppiness. But not once did
she utter let's do lunch, that's the bottom line, what's your take on this,
it's your call. Aga for his part plays well the visitor as outsider,
culturally blindsided by this Americanized version of his girlfriend.
In the end Aga cannot hitch a ride on her star, chucks it all, returns to
the Philippines and picks up his career. And in the end Lea gives up her
independence and big U.S. bucks and follows him.
Would you call this art imitating life? I doubt it. My character of Lea
would mourn for a night, keep dating the white company manager, and insist
on having it all while puffing on a cigar.

I am stupid. Pero lalo akong nabo-bobo kapag pinapanood ko
ang mga pelikula ni Andrew E. BTW, I realized that Fil-Ams have a
lot of catching up to do. I could understand that when watching a
Pinoy movie, their main concern lies more on the way how tagalog
is spoken or how Filipinos IN the Philippine setting act/react to
certain situations and circumstances. Therefore an impartial
analysis of the merits and demerits of it as a whole may not be
possible.
Now, contrast this to a Pinoy who was born and raised in RP. He
witnessed how Filipinos became very politicized during and after
the Marcos era. He witnessed the poverty and the lack of
opportunities; he saw the proliferation of private armies, the
power struggle, leading to the Edsa revolution, etc. He witnessed
the destructions and damaged caused by super typhoons, volcanoes,
floods; he is still witnessing the ongoing mass exodus and the
causes of it. He goes to a movie house to forget the misery and
finds the title of the movie as, "Kalahating Bala Ka Lang".
...So many things that a Pinoy raised in America may never
understand. You may ask, "What's this got to do with movies?".
Movies are among the gauges of a nation's maturity. They have the
power to inspire young people, become creative and aspire for
something great. I don't see any logic in glorifying poverty in
many Pinoy movies.

I agree with you. I have watched Aga's acting ability too, and
from what I've seen he's a very flexible actor. But it is the
filmmakers that I am pounding here, not the actors and actresses.
There are many talented actors and actresses. Richard Gomez is
another, Christopher de Leon, Nora Aunor, Hilda Koronel, Susan
Roces, Amalia Fuentes, etc. They just don't have the right project
and scripts.

Be reminded that the Philippines' FAMAS is derived from the
American OSCAR. Can we escape the fact that the US of A is the
main arena where everything under the sun is judged and
evaluated. Until China becomes a superpower, or an angel comes
down to earth and do another Sodom and Gomorrha stunt, no amount
of protestations against anti-asian BS will result in anything.
The more we protest the more they will pick on us. We must do our
share and fix the root causes of our problems where we all come
from. That would mean we build our own arena where we could
imposed our own standards; make our own designer clothes like Kung
Fool, Juan T., Thai Boy, instead of protesting how racist Tommy
Hilfiger is...
How many Filipino youths (and around the world) have been
inspired by the films created by Spielberg? What is civilization
or modernization for if we do not have a reference? We do not
have to imitate everything. We could try to combine the best of
every culture to the best of what the Creator gave us.

How do you classify a movie as a swashbuckling hit? What standards
are you
using to determine the success of a movie? Where did you get

That is true that Aga used his good looks to get into the industry
but he has now developed into a fine young actor. From what I
understand,
he is regarded as one of the best actors that we have and is well
respected
in the industry for his work. Your judgement about his acting
seems to be stained by his reputation from his "bagets" days.
Please watch "Sa aking mga kamay", it might change your perception
about
his acting.

I do not know what you saw but you seem to be focus on judging
the quality of a filipno movie by comparing it to american movies.
No can do. It is unfair cause the quality and style of directing
is different.
Myself, I felt that the movie was very entertaining. It showed
a very good depiction of the life in America. A very succesfull
executive in the Phil having to chop wood(middle of winter) in
America
just to earn a living and meek and vulnerable girl in the Phil who
blossoms
into a mature, strong and independent woman. People who has
seen the movie shares the same sentiments as me. Your the only
one that I know that did not like it.
For all of you who has not seen it, I suggest that you watch it.

Speaking of movies, I have found that the majority of filipino movies I
have watched often grate on my senses. Let's take comedy as an example.
Most of the movies I have watched are characterized as being comedies, but
they aren't that funny to me. I refuse to believe that there are no
comedians or funny people in the philippines so what could it be?
For a specific example, let us take this one movie by Vic Sotto. In one
of the scenes, we see him getting ready for a date or something like that.
Now, he's washing himself with two of his alalays along. He brushes his
armpits and then asks one of the alalays to smell his armpit. He wants
to know whether the armpit should be scrubbed some more. Is this supposed
to be funny? I totally missed it.
As for the dramas, I am very uncomfortable with the gratuitous crying
scenes. I'm sorry, even the inital movies of Nora Aunor made me
uncomfortable when she used tears as a vehicle to move the audience.
Alas, I don't have any specific movie examples since I usually don't rent
dramas.
Just to make sure of course that we all end up in a positive note, I would
like to mention that one show I do like is the "Maalaala Mo Pa Kaya."
Time and again, I have been surprised by the content, story and acting of
the series.
Ok, sure, sometimes the story line is incredible to believe as the one
shown today with the naghihiganteng multo. However, if you even were in
the philippines once in your life, I'm sure that you could place yourself
so that the story was likely at the very least.
Well, I'm still recovering from the flu so I have to shut up now.

Dear Therese,
I'm glad you helped out with the title, but please, help critique the film
for the rest of us. In Aga and Lea, I believe we have a new generation
of Filipino performers. And ABS-CBN is very interested in what sells and
what does not. Myself I thought the story line was very now - Filipino
boy chases girl half way around the world to find a girl he doesn't even
know anymore. ABS-CBN realizes they are catering to a brand new generation
of Filipinos, and Lea's role was a very clever reflection of that awareness.
So Therese, what did you think? And you guys, ease up on the flaming, ok?

So your saying that you made the statement that the movie

She works in the Philippine movie industry or is just updated

Joeman, please do not take my inquiries in the wrong context.
I just can't imagine that the movie was a failure. Every Filipino
that I know has seen it and liked it. I know that does not
mean a thing but it gives me the impression that in general,
it's a well liked film.
Does your sister have numbers/stats, supporting her claim? Just
curios how this movie compares to the ones you classified as hits.

Point well taken. But what we need to understand is that these
films are designed for a smaller target audience. Smaller audience
means
small profits. Why spend $100.00 to make $100.25(exaguration
of course). I am not saying it is impossible to make a good
movie with a small budget but having more money to make a film
could give a director much more freedom to do what he really wants.

You might be giving this type of media too much credit. I agree that
they could be a medium for inspiration, but ...it cannot and will not
define a culture's identity. Take for instance "Schindler's list".
It garnered a number of awards in the infamous "Oscars" but how
many anti-Jewis folks got affected?
Just in case you want to blame violence in the US to the media,
as far as I know, nobody could prove or disprove this theory.
We all know the situation that our country is in but to say that
movies will affect what our youths will do in the future is taking
it a bit too extreme. Making good movies will not abolish corruption,
stop natural disasters nor make us a superpower. Respect, honor,
confidence and more unmentioned GOOD virtues are suppose to be
instilled
to the youths by their parents and not rely on sports superstars or
the movies.

And yet the Filipino movies sell in the Philippines. Why? Because the
movie-going crowd likes what it sees. You (and I) obviously are not the

My impression of Lea is this: she's a bloody gutless hypocrite. She is
willing to strip down to a skimpy bikini in a "high class" act like Miss
Saigon but in a Filipino film there is a beach scene with Aga Muhlach in
his swimming costume and you see Ms. Hypocrite in stupid jeans! I cannot
remember the title of the movie but that was featuring Aga as well. What's
wrong, Lea, we Filipinos aren't good enough for you?! If that attitude

Pinoy movies, they may suck but the entertainment values are high. Some
Pinoy movies are directed (marketed) for their entertainment or escapist
values and not for their artistic value. however there are some Pinoy
movies that exceed just entertainment and go for artistic.

I guess Mr. Cardenas saw neither Miss Saigon while Ms. Salonga was in it,
or paid much attention to the scene in question in Sana Maulit Muli.
1. The skimpiest she ever wore was a dress over a bikini (in New York, it
was just a bra and panties); and
2. Aga didn't wear a swimming costume... he wore a pair of puruntong
shorts and a tank top. She wore a pair of denim shorts and a t-shirt.
I don't think you'd appreciate Ms. Salonga in a swimming costume... at
least, not until she loses at least 10 more pounds. Sal Estrada, wouldn't
you agree?

I seem to recall Lea posting either here or on
rec.arts.theatre.musicals a coule of months back that her body wasn't
one that should be shown in a bikini. Also, in the hardcover book
about Miss Saigon, the author hints that Lea wore a dress instead of a
bikini because she could stand to lose some weight.
Now, that's pretty harsh on her, but because of those comments, I
seriously doubt that she was wearing a bikini in Miss Saigon.

She didn't even *WEAR* a bikini in Miss Saigon 'cause it didn't look
very good on her 'cause she was chubby at the time. So, she was given
the white dress to wear. She just doesn't think that she looks good in
bikini, that's all.
It has nothing to do with racism, believe me. It has to do on what she
feels is right. If you were chubby, you would feel the same way. I know
that, as a woman, I don't look good in bikinis at all because I am
chubby and I think that people would *stare* at me... <sigh> That's the
world we live in...

This is where we are worlds apart from nudists. Most of us mainstream
peoples may look down on nudists as perverted or immoral but I can tell you
that among nudists, the shape of the one's body is not very important. They
do not judge people by how they look or whether they are fat/slim,
old/young, rich/poor, gorgeous/homely. Rather they judge people by their
inner selves: feelings and emotions, that sort of more relevant stuff.
In contrast, we "normal" people judge people by what they look, how much
they earn or what toys and material possessions they have. If we do not
achieve that certain standard that we have on our minds, we lose a certain
confidence on ourselves.
Wouldn't it be a better place if us "normal" people did the same. Of course
being in the nude all the time may not be practical especially at this time
of the year in the northern hemisphere.

In that case, I don't know that many "highly evolved intelligent
creatures". Looks matter a great deal more than they should in
human societies. My father fishes for sport, and he eats the ugly
ones and keeps the pretty ones in his aquarium. Is he thus not
highly evolved or unintelligent, being so hilariously unfair?

I agree in theory, but I must point out not many can venture far

personality, but you might not marry a woman with a better

Hence looks aren't as unimportant as they may seem, huh? Would Lea
be as successful today if she was outright ugly?
What I'm trying to say is, while it's important to keep in mind that
looks aren't everything, it's pretentious and absurd to think that
we've evolved past judging books by their covers. Hence, since we're
not that evolved anyway, walking to work nude isn't that much of a
"de-evolution" either.
I just won't because it's cold, not because I'm so highly evolved I
am above judging people in a large part by their looks.

While you are correct that what's within a person should be
more important than what's outside, it is illogical to assume
that just because other people refuse to strip bare in public
as nudists do, that these people judge others more on looks
than what they have inside.
Sure people judge others on looks, but that's only part of
what is being judged. Humans are a very visually oriented
creatures. Vision is the most important of our all our
senses, some creatures have smell or touch as the leading
senses. Being a very visually dependent creature, it is
natural for a human to judge others or things based on visual
aesthetics. But being a highly evolved intelligent creature,
humans keep in mind that there is more than meets the eye.
The eyes can be easily deceived, and so logic dictates that
people and things be judged by far more than looks. Looks
are part of it, sure, how a person or thing looks tells
*something* about that person or thing, but it doesn't tell

Well, it's been a while that SCF has brought smiles to my poker face.
I like those ngo-ngo jokes especially the a-asya, a-asya one. Sino nga
ba ang nag-paskel nu-on? For the benefit of the newbies, sige nga,
umpisahan 'nyo na... sa huli ang akin, even if the oldtimers may find
it boring, just to break the ice... masyado ng boring itong SCF lately,
eh.

Eto ang isang Ngongo joke.
Si Ngongo ay isang masseur sa isang Chiropractic opis. Isang araw, may
dumating na magandang dalaga sa opis, here comes Ngongo, "Mit, ngusto
mong magpa-hi-yot (fyi hilot)." Shock na bigla ang magandang dalaga,
sabay sampal kay Ngongo, "Bastos, kapangit na nang mukha mo, bastos pa
ang bibig mo...". Kawawang Ngongo, nagkamot ng ulo, "Muti pa mak-iba na
lang ako ng tra-ba-o".
So si Ngongo, pumasok na driver ng dyipni. Ang biyahe niya,
Baclaran/Quiapo. Isang araw sa Quiapo, tumawag siya ng pasahero sa daan.
Sabi niya, "Bac-la-an, bac-la-an". Lumingon iyong lalake. Malaki ang
katawan, sabi sa kaniya, "Hoy sinong binabakla mo diyan!!!", sabay
ginulpe siya ng malaking lalake. Kawawang Ngongo, nagkamot na lang ng
ulo, "Mam-mi-hirang mu-ay to. Muti pa mak-iba na lang ako ng tra-ba-o".
So si Ngongo, napunta na lang sa Hey Bi Hes-Si Bhi Hen (ABS-CBN), naging
hasistant ni Nyani de Lehon sa radyo esteysion. Siya ay naging adviser
na mga callers to Nyani de Lehon. Sabi niya sa isang caller na babae, na
nagkakagalit sila ng kanyang asawa dahil hindi siya magka-anak, "Ha-lam
mo, ang hi-yot (hilot) hay mabisang yu-nas sa hindi magka-hanak. Sa
Bac-la-an hay mayameng mang-hi-hi-yot, pe-yo kung nak-titipik ka ng
pe-ya, mag-hiyutan (mag-hilutan) na lang kayong mag-hasawa".
At least doon, hindi nabugbog si Ngongo. (:^) Wow, happy ending di ba...
Pietro E Reyes, III

Well, it's been a week since my call for the respost of the a-asya, a-asya
joke. Looks like the orginal poster has faded away from SCF. Anyway, here
is my best recollection of the joke.
The ngo-ngo was guiding a truck driver back up a parking slot. Sigaw ng
ngo-ngo: "A-asya, a-asya!" Atras, ang truck driver. Sigaw ulit si
ngo-ngo: "A-asya, a-asya!" Tuloy ang atras ng driver. Nagpa-panick na si
ngo-ngo: "A-asya, a-asya!" All of a sudden, BANG! Sumapok ang truck kung
saan. Galit ang driver at bumaba ng truck: "Anak ka ng patola, sabi mo
kakasiya, eh bakit ako bumangga?" Nang tignan ng driver kung ano ang
nasapok niya, eh puno pala ng akasya. Heh, heh, heh.
Sa susunod naman (with some prodding from the newbies), yung isa ko pang
peborit ngo-ngo dyok, "da ngon-inen-al" (the continental). Sa muling, mga
giliw kong kabayan.
Tata Ayong :)

Hay, ano ba naman iyan. Napaka-halay naman...
O sige, eto naman.
Si ngongo ay right-hand passenger ng dyipni. Tumatakbo
sila sa isang makitid na kalye sa may bukid. Sabi ng
driver,"Ngongo, tingnan mo diyan sa kanan, at ako dito
sa kaliwa. Sabihin mo sa akin kung kanan o kaliwa at
baka tayo mahulog sa bukid". Sagot ni Ngongo,"O-ey Moss"
(ok boss). So there, takbo sila. Nang biglang sabi ni
Ngongo, "kaliwa, kaliwa". So turn-to-the left si driver.
"Bah, okay palang guide itong si Ngongo", sabi ng driver.
Later, sabi ni Ngongo,"Kanan, kanan". So there turn to the
right si driver, "Okay talagang guide si Ngongo". Later on,
while smoothly driving, sumigaw si Ngongo,"Kanan kanan, kanan
sabi eh". So there turn to the right si driver nang bigla
silang nahulog sa kanal. Sabi ng driver na galit na galit,
"Ngongo sabi mo kanan, kumanan naman ako bakit nahulog tayo
dito sa kanal?". Sagot ni Ngongo,"Ay tange, habi ko kanan,
(sabi ko kanal) mayrong' kanan (kanal), ayaw kang makinig".
(Iyon pala, sabi ni Ngongo "kanal, kanal, kanal sabi eh".
Pa-henhiya na kayo sa niyok kong koyni, wala na akong
ma-i-yip eh. ngud-may na yang ha?

O nige, ango naman!
Tinawag ni Inay si Boy ang batang ngo-ngo. "Boy, magpunta ka sa tindahan
ni Aling Petra at bumili ka ng isang latang Pork and Beans." "Omo,
inay," ang sagot ni Boy.
Pagdating ni Boy sa tindahan ay binati niya ang tindera, "Aning Metra,
ngamuta na mo ngayo? (Kamusta na po kayo?)"
"Mabuti naman," ang sagot ni Petra, "ano ang kailangan mo Boy?"
"Mangmilan nga mo ng inang lata ng Mo e Meen?" ang tanong ni Boy.
"Ano kamo, Boy? sabi ni Petra.
"Isa mong Mo e Meen," ang ulit ni Boy.
"Paki-ulit nga Boy at hindi kita maintindihan."
"Mo e Meen, Mo e Meen, nyung nata lata."
"Hindi talaga kita maintindihan. Mabuti pa kaya ay i-spell mo na lang sa
akin."
"O ninge. Mo e Meen. Netter Mi."
"Letter 'B'?" Ang tanong ng tindera.
"Ine! Netter Mi as in Minimines."
"Ha?"
"Mi!" Kinanata ni Boy ang alphabet, "Ey, Mi, Ni, Ni , E, Em, Nyee...En,
Em, En, O, Mi"
"Ahhh, 'P'! Letter 'P'" ang masiglang sagot ni Petra.
"Oo. Mi! Mo e Meen!"
"Sige ituloy mo Boy. 'P'..."
"Ngo!"
"Ano kamo?"
Kumanta ulit, "Ey, Mi, Ni, Ni , E, Em, Nyee...En, Em, En, O"
"Ahhh, titk 'O'! 'P-O' Sige ituloy mo pa."
"Netter Arrng!"
"Kantahin mo na lang ulit Boy."
"Ey, Mi, Ni, Ni , E, Em, Nyee...En, Em, En, O, Mi, Ngyu, Arrng."
"Ahhh! Letter 'R' Malapit na. 'P-O-R' Hindi ko pa rin makuha. Ano ang
susunod Boy."
"Ngey"
"A?"
"Ini, Ngey! A, Ma, Nga (A-Ba-Ka-Da ang kinanta)! Nga!"
"Ka! Letter 'K' 'P-O-R-K' Ahhh Pork!!!"
"Oo. Mo e Meen"
"Pork and?" Ang tanong ni Petra.
"Oo! Mo e Meen!!!"
"Pork and Meen? Ahhhh!!! Alam ko na!!! Pork and Beans!!!"
"Oo! Mo e Meen, Me e Meen, Mo e Meen!!!" ang masayang sigaw ni Boy.
"Pork and Beans pala ang kailangan mo!!!"
"Oo. Mo e Meen, Mo e Meen. Menon ngayo? (Meron kayo?)
"Ahhh...ehhh...Wala!"

Sumakit ang tiyan ko dito ah. Meron pang isa na nabasa ko dito noon:
Si Ngongo ay pumunta sa isang tindahan para bumili ng soda.
"Mabili nga o nang Mebsi." Ang sabi niya.
"Anong sabi mo?", ang tanong ni Mang Gaston na siga ng lugar.
"Meb-si! Meb-si!", sigaw ni Ngongo.
"Aba at huwag mo 'kong sisigawan", ang galit ni Mang Gaston at sinakal
niya si Ngongo. "Anong gusto mong bilihin hayop ka?"
"Ngok, ngok", hindi makahinga si Ngongo.
"Eh Coke lang pala, hindi mo masabi ng mahusay."

O sige na nga, heto na yung other ngo-ngo nyok entitled
"Na Ngon-inen-al" that I promised to repost, I hope this
makes you guys another day:
Alam po ba ninyo yung style ng pananamit na tinawag nilang
"The Continental" na na-uso nuong late 50's / early 60's?
Para duon sa inyong mga hindi pa na-ipapanganak o mga musmos
pa nang mga panahon na yaon, the continental is characterized
by "V" slits on the sleeves and breast pockets of shirt-jacks
and on the straight cuffs of western style pants.
Tinawag ng ngo-ngo yung balut vendor: "Oy mak-mamanyut,
makminyan nga ng manyut mo?" Inabutan ng balut si ngo-ngo,
nagbayad, at habang binibilangan ng sukli, nakati-katihan ng
balut vendor na biruin si ngo-ngo. Balut vendor: "Ano ang
tawag mo diyan?" ...habang itinuturo yung slit ng sleeve ni
ngo-ngo. Proud na sagot ni ngo-ngo: "Ngon-inen-al!" Balut
vendor again: "Iyan, ano ang tawag mo diyan?" ...habang
itinuturo yung slit sa bulsa ng shirt ni ngo-ngo. Sagot ni
ngo-ngo: "Ngon-inen-al ma nyin." Balut vendor getting nasty:
"Eh, ano naman ang tawag mo diyan?" ...habang itinuturo yung
slit sa nguso ni ngo-ngo. Sagot ni ngo-ngo: "Ang munyang inya
mo!!" ...sabay tadyak sa kaing ng balut ni balut vendor. What
happened next, I'll leave to your fertile imagination. Heh,
heh, heh.
