Her life and myriad activities can fill several volumes. In fact, she has just published her autobiography Shuttling Through Stage and Screen: Educator, author, lecturer, stage director and consummate actress, among other accomplishments in the arts and in the academe — Rustica C. Carpio, Ph.D. (and Doc Rustie to me because she and my late mother were colleagues at the Far Eastern University eons ago).

No, it’s not age. The titles of most local films these days are really forgettable.

                    [Summary] => We are way past the second half of the year, but so far, I can only see two local films competing for Best Picture in next year’s awards race: Maryo J. de los Reyes’ Magnifico and Joel Lamangan’s Huling Birhen (Our only hope is for the December Metro Filmfest to have a fruitful harvest).


But what is wrong with Filipino movies that we seem to be stuck with low-quality films today?


Maybe we can look at all the cinematic aspects and find out where the problem lies.
