First "full" week of May, and Ploning the Movie has caused quite a stir, Ladies and Gents.
Earlier today, in a certain part of the blogosphere, a fire was ignited as Rom, den mistress of The Smoking Room cast her fiery opinions regarding the movie... And my bubbly “hard-sell” passion for the movie.
In other news, there are still quite a few people who have watched, and were touched by the movie.
Take Yves, for example, a great friend and dear sister, watched and loved Ploning the Movie. She loved it not just because she watched it in support of executive producer Jourdan Sebastian, not just because I was raving about it, but because it touched her heart too. Clickie to read her review.
Wanie Jane, who’s interviewed the core Panoramanila Pictures team and has watched the movie, seems to understand the movie and what it’s worth. Thank you, for agreeing with me. :)
Rock Photographer Mari Arquiza may have written little about the movie, but you can feel her enthusiasm and her unequivocal appreciation of the movie, which seemed to have sealed her lips in effect, in her blog. <Clickie> for Mari’s take on Ploning the Movie.
Paul has a different take on the movie, however, as he sees it as a way to preserve Philippine languages.
But the capper of all the reviews of Ploning is a friend of Executive Producer Jourdan Sebastian, who posted on a Russian website. Clickie to see much love for Ploning the Movie.
Frankly I initially got discouraged by Rom’s lynching of the movie. I did not expect everyone to love the movie, but I did hope that people would at least be fair enough to write objectively.
To the callous eye, Rom’s verbal pronouncements were normal, respectable even. For me, I did find those words rather crass, despite being honeyed with intellectualism.
I did not expect everyone to love the movie, but I did hope that it would be given a chance.
So clickie on other people’s reviews, or go to Google’s Blogsearch and type in “Ploning.” Let’s see what everyone else thinks. :)
