Sinag Maynila Filmfest With Six Varied Entries To Be Shown In SM Cinemas From April 21 To 27

HERE ARE are the SINAG MAYNILA Filmfest entries:

“MRS.” by Adolf Alix Jr. - 70-year-old Virginia shares the old ancestral house with Delia, her ever-loyal maid. Delia is marrying her long-time boyfriend, Rene, and tearfully confides to Virginia that she wants to go home to her parents in the province to start a new family life with him.

For Ben, this last assignment turns out to be a journey of introspection, self-healing and redemption. With this awakening, he takes it upon himself to pull Morris out of the eventual hell-of-a-life he says he has lived as a hitman. “EXPRESSWAY” stars Alvin Anson, Aljur Abrenica, RK Bagatsing, Kiko Matos, Inez Bernardo, Japo Parcero, Arpee Bautista, Jim Libiran.

Cong. Amado Bagatsing, Uncle Of Actors Raymond And RK Bagatsing, Runs For Manila Mayor Vs. Erap & Fred Lim

REP. AMADO BAGATSING has been congressman of Manila’s District 5 for the past nine years, his second nine-year term. He thought he’d be resting from politics for a while but he’s now running for mayor of Manila. “Ang dami kasing tao mula sa iba’t ibang sektor, lalo na ang mga kasamahan ko sa KABAKA, which stands for Kabalikat ng Bayan sa Kaunlaran, na nakiusap sa aking tumakbo ako,” he says. “Kasi wala raw silang gusto sa dalawang kandidato, si Erap Estrada at si Fred Lim. Bigyan nyo naman kami ng alternatibo, sabi sa’kin. Ako raw ang tinig ng kabataan, kasi si Lim, 80 years old na at si Erap, 70 plus. Ako, nasa 60s pa lang. So ako’ng pinakabata sa amin. Nagulat ako dahil sa surveys, biglang ang taas ng rating ko.”

He has a showbiz connection since two of his nephews, actors Raymond and RK Bagatsing, are kids of his older brother, Boy Bagatsing. His dad is the late Manila mayor Ramon Bagatsing, who was a victim of the Plaza Miranda Bombing in 1971.

John Arcilla Plays Barbie Forteza's Stepdad In 'That's My Amboy' After His Hit Movie 'Heneral Luna'

JOHN ARCILLA admits he has upped his talent fee after his movie, “Heneral Luna”, hit it big at the tills and with critics. It’s definitely a high point in his career what with him playing the title role no less. Do people now address him as Heneral Luna?

“When they see me in public, alam nilang si John Arcilla ako,” he says. “But when I put on my Heneral Luna moustache, doon talaga sila nagugulat. The movie brought me to several countries where it had special screenings. Kunsaan-saan talaga ang invitations ko.”

John started his acting career on theater at plays staged at the CCP. But he first came into public consciousness for that TV commercial where he says nothing but “Coffee na lang, Dear”. He then started appearing in movies and on TV. He won best supporting actor awards for films like “Mulanay” and “Ligaya ang Itawag Mo sa Akin”. But it’s his being “Heneral Luna” that made him popular even to young people. “Now, even children and students, millennials, nakikilala ako,” he beams.

He’s been appearing in mostly ABS-CBN shows for the past several years, like “Oh My G”, “Pure Love”, “Hiyas”, “Beautiful Affair” and “Apoy Sa Dagat”. But now, he plays Donita Rose’s husband and Barbie Forteza’s stepdad in GMA-7’s new hit on primetime, “That’s My Amboy”.

“After ‘Heneral Luna’ na serious drama at sobrang bigat, where I was brutally murdered, it’s nice to do something light like ‘That’s My Amboy’. It’s nice working with both Donita and Barbie, and also with our director, Joyce Bernal. Nag-click kami agad lahat sa set. Si Barbie, ang galing mag-adlib. Kahit wala sa script, tuloy-tuloy lang ang eksena namin. Nakakatuwa siya. Sobrang spontaneous.”

Pauleen Luna To Vic Sotto: "I Can't Wait To Be Your Wife"

PAULEEN LUNA will be stepmother or madrasta to her husband Vic Sotto’s children, Danica and Oyo Sotto, who are several years younger than her. The age difference between them is not a problem though, as all of Vic’s four children accept Pauleen warmly as their dad’s bride and they all have special participations in the wedding of Vic and Pauleen at St. James Church in Alabang on January 30.

At the shower given to Pauleen on “Eat Bulaga” last Saturday, she couldn’t help but shed tears with the well wishes of her close friends like Camille Prats, Yayo Aguila, Ruby Rodriguez, Sherilyn Reyes and her co-host Pia Guanio, who was an ex-GF of Vic. Some folks said they felt awkward for Pia, but in all fairness to her, she sounded so sincere and truthful when she gave her message for Pauleen, who was obviously so touched she later gave Pia a tight hug.

Vic himself was so touched when Joey de Leon, along with his brother Tito, Maru and Val Sotto gave their own messages for the coming wedding and for their rendition of the wedding song “Ikaw”. Vic also personally thanked all his children for respecting his relationship with Pauleen and accepting her as his new partner. Pauleen had a meaningful message for him it sounds like they’re already exchanging wedding vows.

Gabby Concepcion & Rey Abellana Are Together In 'Because Of You', With Rey As Daughter Carla's Dad & Gabby As Leading Man

GABBY CONCEPCION and Rey PJ Abellana are contemporaries. Rey was even Sharon Cuneta’s leading man in “Bukas Luluhod ang mga Tala”. Now, Rey plays the dad of his real life daughter, Carla Abellana, in “Because of You”, while Gabby is Carla’s leading man. Which is why Gabby jokingly calls Rey his dad on the set of their hit show. What is Rey’s reaction to this?

“Wala akong naririnig,” he laughs. “Ganyan talaga kami magbiruan niyan. Sa pictorial pa lang ng show, actually, ni-remind ko siyang contemporaries kami. Sabay pa ngang nanganak si Sharon at si Rhea (his former wife) sa mga panganay namin sa Makati Medical Center.”

How did he feel when Gabby became Carla’s leading man? “Okay sa’kin kasi si Gabby, mabait yan, edukado. Okay naman sa’kin kahit sinong makapareha ng anak ko. Hindi ako nag-aalala. Silang dapat mag-alala sa’kin kapag hindi maganda ang treatment nila sa anak ko.”

So he approves of Carla’s rumored romance with Tom Rodriguez? “I trust my daughter. She’s smart, she knows better. It’s her choice at maingat naman yan.”

Derek Ramsay recounts how ex-grilfriend Angelica Panganiban greeted him on his birthday

Derek Ramsay recounts how ex-grilfriend Angelica Panganiban greeted him on his birthday

The press people had a field day listening to actor  Derek Ramsay's story about how his ex-girlfriend Angelica Panganiban greeted him on his birthday.

In the press conference held for Regal Films movie "Love Is Blind" yesterday, January 21, Ramsay shared a funny story about him and ex-girlfriend Angelica Panganiban when the latter greeted him on his birthday last December.

Yes. You read it right. The ex-lovers have patched things up and it was the kapamilya actress who made the first move.

So here's the story.

Angelica greeted Derek on his birthday through a text message. "Belated happy birthday Derek – Gel", says on the text message. The problem is, Angelica had her number changed so Derek needed to ask who "Gel" it was who greeted him.

‘Thank you very much. Gel who?’, Derek replied.

Then the actor continued, "She said, ‘Angel.’ I replied, ‘Hahaha, Angel who?’ Sabi niya, ‘Baliw, ex mo.’ Iba na ang number niya. And then I called her, nag-usap kami and we caught up for a bit.” 

In the end, Derek was thankful for he had been hoping and praying that time would come for them to heal everything and become as good friends again.

 “We all have our own time to heal. It was nice for her to reach out and greet me for my birthday. It’s good kasi it’s something in my life na I’ve been hoping and praying for na magkaayos kami, maging magkaibigan ulit kami. Kasi six years is six years. Sobrang thankful ako na nag-text siya sa akin ng belated happy birthday,” sabi ni Derek.

Recall that the couple had a tumultuous breakup when one woman showed up and introduced herself as the wife then filed a concubinage case against the actor.

Meanwhile, Derek backed Angelica's denial that she and current boyfriend John Lloyd Cruz have called it 'QUITS'.

“Hindi totoo [na hiwalay na sila]. Patayin na ang issue na 'yan. Hindi totoo 'yan,” Ramsay said.

QC Councilor Roderick Paulate, dismissed from public office

QC Councilor Roderick Paulate, dismissed from public office

Quezon City Councilor Roderick Paulate and three others were charged guilty by Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales for falsification of official documents, serious dishonesty, conduct prejudicial to the best interest of the service, and grave misconduct.

"Paulate and 1st District Rep. Francisco Calalay Jr., as well as liaison officers Flordeliza Alvarez and Vicente Bajamunde, are perpetually disqualified from holding public office. Their civil service eligibilities are also cancelled, and their retirement benefits forfeited", the report noted.

According to a report by ABS-CBN News, Paulate and Calalay hired sixty “ghost contractual employees” who occupied various positions such as field inspectors, district coordinators and office aides. They also received salaries ranging from P5,000 to P10,000.

The investigation also found out that there were no birth certificates and NBI clearances submitted when the “employees” applied only endorsement letters. Their signatures are also inconsistent.

“Alvarez and Bajamunde were the ones who claimed the processed payrolls from the disbursing officer to have them signed by the supposed listed job contractors, returned the signed payrolls to the disbursing officer, and collected the full amount. They, however, failed to satisfactorily explain why each job contractor had different signatures appearing in the subject payrolls,” the decision read.

The Big Short Review: A Cautionary Movie About The 2008 Financial Crisis In The U.S.


THE OSCAR-nominated film, “The Big Short”, is now being shown in a few local theatres and if you’re a movie buff who doesn’t just like the usual kababawan but also go for films with more serious content, we advise you to see it right away. It certainly won’t last very long in our theaters simply because a lot of local viewers won’t be able to understand it, even if Director Adam McKay tries his best to explain everything technical in it in layman’s terms.

It’s about the 2008 global financial crisis and is based on Michael Lewis’ book, “The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine” (he also wrote “Moneyball”). The film is told from the point of view of some bright investors who saw the unstable foundation of subprime mortgages not foreseen by even America’s Treasury officials and its biggest banks. These wheeler dealers end up raking in a lot of money from the financial system’s meltdown.

First is Michael Burry (Christian Bale), an eccentric neurologist who goes into the stock market. Then there’s banker Jared Vennett (Ryan Gosling) and broker Mark Baum (Steve Carell) who go into the credit default swap business. There are also two younger men new into investments, Charles Geller (John Magaro) and Jamie Shipley (Finn Wittrock), who start their business in a garage and join the game with the help of a semi-retired broker, Ben Rickert (Brad Pitt).

Angel Locsin On Working With Future Mother-In-Law Gov. Vilma Santos

ANGEL LOCSIN confesses that she’s a big fan of the mom of her BF Luis Manzano, Gov. Vilma Santos. “Starstruck ako sa shooting ng movie naming ‘Everything About Her’,” she says. “Kasi fan niya talaga ako. At first, I asked our director, Joyce Bernal, kaya ko ba? Baka hindi ako makapag-react nang tama kapag kaeksena ko na siya? Buti na lang talaga nakatutok sa’kin si Direk Joyce para ikorek ako sa mga nakagawian kong proceso sa pag-arte. So ibang atake naman ang ginawa ko rito with Tita Vi. I consider myself na napakasuwerte ko to be given the chance to work with her. I learned so much about life and tungkol din sa pagiging artista. She’s a joy to work with. Masaya kami sa set kapag kasama siya kasi sobrang bait niya, on and off cam, not just to me but to everyone else na kasama sa shooting. Laging nagpapakain, magiliw sa lahat, setting a good example dahil hindi pinapakita kahit pagod na siya. Lagi rin siyang may dalang maraming dyaryo sa set kaya nababasa niya lahat ng mga sinusulat nyo about her.”

Is it true that despite her earlier statement that she can no longer do “Darna” due to some health issues, some quarters are still tapping her to play the coveted role? “Hindi ko po alam. Ako raw po ba? But you know kung gaano ko talaga kamahal ang project na yan. Kaya lang, nagpapagaling pa ako. I have to protect my health kasi gusto kong magka-baby pa in the future. Tatapusin ko lang ang premiere night ng ‘Everything About Her’ that opens on January 27 and also yung block screenings then babalik ako sa Singapore para sa second phase ng medical procedure na ginagawa sa spine. It’s laser with ten injections sa nerves and disc ko.”

A photo showing her and her dad with Luis and his family circulated on the net and there were speculations that Luis and Ate Vi made “pamanhikan” to formally ask her hand from her dad. “Naku, hindi po pamanhikan yun. Wala pa sa plano namin ni Luis ang magpakasal.”

Who among Nadine Lustre, Liza Soberano, and Jessy Mendiola is the fittest to play Darna? Direk Erik Matti gives his insights.


Erik Matti, who will be directing the remake of Darna under Star Cinema, said in an interview with DZMM on January 16 that management is still looking for a replacement for Angel Locsin as the Philippine heroine. Angel had to back out of the project due to her health.

Director Erik said that he suggested that management hold auditions for the role since it would require intensive physical preparations.

“Gusto ko makita kung kakayanin ng artista. Kasi ang hirap na ngayon mag-double. Dati, mga five years ago, puwede pa mag-double sa eksena. Pero ngayon mahirap na with all the Hollywood films that come out where all the actors really prepare for the role. Gusto namin mag-audition,” he said.

“Ang burden nitong Darna na latest is over the past five years, na-bombard na tayo ng Marvel. Mahirap siya execution-wise na kung paano lang din yung dati,” he added.

Ever since the short teaser for Darna was released during the 2015 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) when films All You Need Is Pag-ibig and Beauty and the Bestie were shown, people began speculating that Liza Soberano, Nadine Lustre or Jessy Mendiola could be the next Darna.

 Matti shared his insights on the three actresses.

“Si Liza (Soberano), yes puwede. She has the strength physically, 'yung itsura at katawan. And then tama 'yung edad and you can do a lot of things sa mukha niya. Puwede siya mag-iba-iba ng itsura and she could still look really good. At the same time, Pinay siya na maganda, pan-Asian. Mahirap 'yung mestiza eh,” he shared.

For Nadine, he said, “Okay din naman si Nadine. Hindi ko pa siya nakikita personal. Hindi ko pa nakikita kung gaano siya katangkad ngayon. Kasi I’ve done two commercials with her a year ago. Hindi ko lang alam kung ang height niya ay tama.”

“Si Jessy has the built. Maputi lang siya masyado. Personal ko ito na comment ha, hindi ito comment ng ABS-CBN. Maputi lang masyado si Jessy. Pinay dapat,” he commented.

In addition, he also commented on the idea of 2015 Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach portraying the role of Darna.

“Si Pia, alam niyo bagay na bagay si Pia pero in the history of Darna, hindi talaga umuubra 'yung beauty queen kasi kailangan mo talaga ng regular Pinay woman. Ordinaryo lang na character. Hindi siya kailangan vavavoom, hindi kailangan na stunning.”

ABS-CBN has not yet released an official date for Darna.

Actor Joross Gamboa tagged in a video scandal

A video tagged to actor Joross Gamboa has stirred talks as it makes the rounds online. A video link and several screenshots showing a man who looks like the actor are flooding the search results for "Joross Gamboa " on Twitter,

The video, apparently filmed inside a car, shows a man speaking to someone not seen on screen. The subject of the video, alleged to be Gamboa, is seen pleasuring himself while talking to the other, unseen, person, as though giving directions. The two seem to have been conversing through online video chat.

As the nearly six-minute video went on, someone appears to be calling out from outside the car, as the man in the car replied that he would be out in a while.

The 31-year-old actor, who became popular after ending up as a runner up in ABS CBN’s Star Circle Quest, is married to non-showbiz wife Katz Saga. His wife gave birth to their first child in October 2015, almost a year after the two got married.
