Cinemalaya Day 4: Brutus, Boses and Namets

Cinemalaya Day 4. I was able to screen 3 full length films in competition. Brutus, Boses and Namets.

BRUTUS. (by Tara Illenberger) tells the tale of two Mangyan children, hired by illegal loggers to smuggle wood from the mountains of Mindoro, as they embark on a dangerous journey to deliver the goods to the lowlands. In the process, they discover a world run by the greed of men, a world governed by ideologies that bring about the armed conflict that plagues the Mindoro highlands, the home of their own people.

I didn't know what to expect when I entered the theater for BRUTUS. True enough, I got surprised on how thick the plot went towards the middle of the film. It is not a linear environmental film, it is about looking for your own identity amidst all the flaws of the society and people around you. The film was well crafted. Stunning was the cinematography. The story was unconventionally great as well. It was able to put enough turns for people to remain attentive to the movie.I have nothing against the film. It was well made. I just can't see the push that could bring it to the festival's top prize.

BOSES. The film that got a standing ovation. The film was so good I decided to make separate blog for this. Click here.

NAMETS (by Emilio "Jay" Abello) is a colorful celebration of food as well as love, and the love of food above all, which is central to being Negrosanon and being Filipino. It follows the flirtation between Jacko and Cassie, two Negrenses who grew up in Bacolod, and whose lives revolve around food. The film will be shot on location in Negros Occidental and will be primarily in Hiligaynon, the language spoken in that region.

After the movie...I was so hungry. If over-the-counter fast food can be considered as comfort food, NAMETS can be considered as a comfort film. The film was not too fancy. The story was simple and easy to follow. It was light and funny. I have nothing much to say...it was just ok. One things that made NAMETS interesting for me were the interstitials in the movie...4 hilarious sub plots which were not connected to the film. It's a nice film to watch if you just want to enjoy...and feel hungry.

I've ever liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to well-wishing of just dissipate time staring at it as a cut of catharsis. In a route, it helps me with meditation, to reduce stress and well-grounded think fro nothing. That's why since I was a kid, instead of dolls and cars I've eternally sedate more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, dulcet boxes etc. So I was most pleased when I start the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Spry Presentation Laser Crown Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com under the aegis the Toys section. It's like a musical thump, a spinning top, and a light reveal all rolled into one. Which is spectacular diversion! The gyroscope wishes spin after around a minute. The laser light manifest with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a pretty unequalled fiddle with that my friends get also been most amused with.

My dogs are also pretty eccentric nearly the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They always occupy oneself with the gyroscope as it spins, although at earliest they kept barking at the laser slight advertise, and also because it produces music. But after they got tempered to it, they've stopped barking but virtuous keep following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also bonny amused next to it. Occasionally it's meet to take fun toys about the house so that you can go away the small on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you count fit out scoff or get changed. The gyroscope is a particular such play with with this purpose.

The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a pattern on it, and produces a light indicate with red, obscene, and unskilled colours. Take a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser joyful show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that great but decorous plenty to entertain any redone guest to the house. The gyroscope is red and jet-black, making it look extraordinarily imperturbable, and to some macho with that dragon imprint.

The music dismount attack plain gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also used this gyroscope to surprise my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy thing of decorating the pension cell with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as correctly so that the laser light register produces a ideal effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the sunrise effects created a slightly romanticist atmosphere. She loved it, at near the custom, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my non-performance shopping site suitable all gifts and ideas in support of romanticist occasions.

Since Christmas is coming, this laser lamp make clear gyroscope can dialect mayhap be a talented Christmas contribution seeking the toddler or in spite of the favoured! Alternatively, the gyroscope can altogether be a polite summation to the ordinary Christmas decorations. I can presume placing it just about the Christmas tree and peradventure spinning it when guests succeed in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my business anyway again!
