Source #Cebu #PauloAvelino #DerekRamsay #BeaAlonzo #RuelSBayani My mouth is agape. What a great story! The actors were carefully chosen! Wow! Great twist and ending! Great direction! 😊 (Please pardon the exclamation points.)   Basing on the trailer I already guessed what the "truth" is, but I wasn't able to guess certain scenes, plus I love the ending. I loved how the actors were all immersed into their roles.  Everyone's role, whether big or small is important. Source I also loved that they showcased how beautiful Cebu is.  The LED flowers in Day-as, Cordova ( 10,000 Roses Cafe & More ), the Adarna's  Temple of Leah , Source among other picturesque places and modern infrastructure. THE ACTING: We love Ms. Celeste Legaspi , but we loved her more because she took advantage of her beautiful platinum hair and allowed herself to look older(she looks so young in person) to be Lia's grandma.  She also acted...

Teaser Bea Alonzo as Arch. Basha Belinda Eugenio-Gonzales (She has always been beautiful, but she was even more beautiful here.  Her acting was almost seamless...and probably it was---seamless, I mean) John Lloyd Cruz as Engr. Rodolfo 'Popoy ' Gonzales (Without a doubt, he is a great actor) Billy Crawford as Pedro (everyone did well, but I admire how Billy Crawford personified Pedro) Arci Muñoz as Ara, Popoy's FB in Qatar (Wow, in PASION de AMOR she plays a classy woman...here, she played a jologs, but talented woman quite well) Al Tantay as Tito Willie (no role is too small for him...he's really good) Dimples Romana as Krizzy (another versatile actor---as always, she did great) Janus Del Prado as Chinno  (it's in the blood---he's a natural!) James Blanco as Kenneth (mom did not recognize James Blanco---I watched this movie two times courtesy of my ePlus tap to pay card---she thought the one playing the role of Kenneth was really blind) Bea Saw...

The long-awaited film has finally arrived  and what made me interested in this film is the fact that even if Adrianne is  the other woman , she was not the cause of the rocky marriage between Vincent and Trish. Addie is a very intelligent, but scarred woman.  She underwent a lot of pain and trouble that she never imagined herself being in a situation  she hated  so much.  Everything she wanted to tell her dad's mistress and her fiancé's lover were uttered   to her by her lover's wife, but what touched  her soul was when the eldest and only girl talked to her, and she saw herself in her shoes.    Yes, you may say that this is an immoral movie, but this is also very touching indeed.  I cried, I laughed, I felt joy and peace, most especially towards the end of the film. Why did I cry?  There were a lot of moving scenes, most especially in the hospital.  I remembered my brothers and a whole lot more. Last nig...

#ShesTheOne Falling in love with your best friend is very ideal, but I also believe that women and men can be friends without benefits...without malice.  There's the friendship of Saints Francis and Claire of Assisi and some modern day platonic relationships that last a lifetime.  I have my own best guy friend.  Yes, I did have a crush on him two(2) decades ago, but I've been over the feeling for ages.   Even  if we rarely see each other, he's still my best guy friend in the whole wide world, but if ever I do get married, he'll be my second best guy friend...of course! Best relationships are still those that were born from friendship, but there are friendships that end when mixed with passion or strong love. When SHE'S THE ONE's first trailer was shown on the big screen, at least to my knowledge, I felt like cringing.  Another best friend falls in love with his/her best friend story.  I've enjoyed a lot of those types of movies, ...
