Christmas here in the Philippines is never complete
without our families and friends without watching to the cinemas on December 25
for every year Metro Manila Film Festival or commony known as MMFF.
"Ang Larawan" is the official entry of Direk Loy Arcenas to the
43rd Metro Manila Film Festival. It was internationally released as "The
Portrait" and had it's premiere in Japan last October 30, 2017 as the
entry for Tokyo International Film Festival.
Background of the film from it's official page
Ang Larawan is the film adaptation of Larawan, The Musical
which is based on National Artist for Literature Nick Joaquin’s three-act
English play A Portrait of the Artist as Filipino. First published in 1952,
Joaquin’s work has been depicted numerous times on stage on screen and in
English and Filipino—making it one of the most pedigreed literary works of the
Philippines.
In 1997, Musical Theater Philippines (now Culturtain Musicat
Productions Inc. ) headed by singer Celeste Legaspi and talent manager/producer
Girlie Rodis staged Larawan, the first musical rendition of Joaquin’s great
play, at the CCP. The elegaic play was transformed into a musical with a
libretto written by National Artist for Theater Rolando Tinio and music created
by iconic original Filipino music composer Ryan Cayabyab.
This year, Culturtain with the help of supervising producer
Alemberg Ang, shares Ang Larawan, The Movie with the global audience. Loy
Arcenas, a multi-awarded Broadway theatrical set designer and director, was at
the helm of the much-awaited film.
Synopsis of the Movie from it's official website
This story set before World War II in Intramuros tells of
the plight of sisters Candida and Paula Marasigan, daughters of high-profile
painter Don Lorenzo Marasigan.
Since Don Lorenzo has not produced a single painting for a
long time, the family is in financial trouble. The unmarried sisters have had
to rely on their seemingly more successful brother Manolo and sister Pepang.
Their siblings urge Candida and Paula to sell the house.
To have a source of income, the sisters take in a boarder,
Tony Javier. Meanwhile, Don Lorenzo becomes a recluse. The painter’s
self-portrait fetches a high sum as it attracts the curiosity of many
individuals which include pretentious art critics, bonafide journalist and
family friend Bitoy Camacho, Senator Perico who asks the sisters to donate the
portrait to the government and Tony who tries to convince Candida and Paula to
sell it to an American.
Larawan is an ode to the passing of the world of truth and
beauty and a celebration of the tenacity of the spirit amidst the rise of
materialism and consumerism.
Did you know that?.....
They began working on Larawan four and a half years ago.
The music had to be written completely and it took an entire year.
Believe it or not, the film was shot well over two years ago.
5 reasonsto watch " Ang Larawan" by Rachel Alejandro
1.Joanna Ampil deserves to win the Best Actress award.
2. You’ll get goosebumps with Ryan Cayabyab's music, played by the
ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra.
3.You will cry buckets.
4.It has never been done.
5. And lastly, Paula and Paulo's on-screen chemistry.
Last December 27 at the Kia Theater, they bagged 7 awards as

Cayabyab, BEST PRODUCTION DESIGN- Gino Gonzales, GATPUNO ANTONIO VILLEGAS
CULTURAL AWARD, and the POSTHUMOUS SPECIAL JURY PRIZE- National Artist Nick
Joaquin at the 43rd Metro Manila Film Festival Gabi ng Parangal. After watching
the trailers and reviews, the movie deserved to won that awards.The scene makes
you feel you are living in a history.All the characters played their beyond
their best.
REVIEWS from the netizens
For me, the lesson of the story is all about women
empowerment but it is also so much more.It's all about standing on your own
ground, no matter what the cost, and fighting for what you believe in.
DEFY THE WORLD!
What are you waiting for folks? Go and watch it on the
cinemas.
While museums
around the world strictly disallow photography, this one in particular not only
allow touching of exhibits and photography, they encourage it. In fact, a trip
to " Art in Island",
an interactive art museum located in 15th Avenue, Cubao Quezon City, would be
useless without a camera.
Last December 2014, Art in Island was founded by Yun Jae Kyoung together with a team of 18 Korean master
painters who were specially flown in for the project. They all worked together
and created the paintings in the museum. The museum had over 200 masterpieces,
including reproduction of works of masters, animals, Egyptian ruins and
others—most of them are 3D! These arts give the illusion of depth when viewed
from a certain angle, and is designed to serve as a backdrop for photo
opportunities.

The museum
houses a collection of art and historical artifacts loaned by the BSP such as
pre-Hispanic goldwork and pottery, religious artwork as well as some artworks
by Felix Hidalgo. The
rest of the museum is dedicated to Philippine contemporary featuring works of
various Filipino artists.
The permanent exhibitions are Classical Philippine Goldwork & Pottery of the 8th to the 13th Century and the Philippine Contemporary: To Scale the Past and the Possible.In the Classical Philippine Goldwork,you will seeitems such as gold adornments, ritual pieces and barter
rings. Those collections are evidence of a flourishing pre-colonial society in
the Philippines that was actively engaged in local and international trade.While in Classical
Philippine Pottery, you will saw the pottery used by our forefathers in Pre- Colonial times as ritual articles,household implements and burial vessels.In the Philippine Contemporary, it highlights the Met’s direction to “integrate a heightened
focus on modern and contemporary art by Philippine and foreign artists.” The
exhibition is curated by Dr Patrick Flores, a well-known art critic and
scholar, and covers a wide range of forms such as painting, installations,
visual culture and popular media (comics, photography, film and video).

section of Manila. Housed within the Kaisa-Angelo King Heritage Center

Chinese in the Philippine life and history.
The museum was designed by Eva Penamora in collaboration
with the late architect Honrado Fernandez in 1996, and completed and
inaugurated in 1999. Kaisa Para sa Kaunlaran, Inc., a non-profit organization
co-founded by Teresita Ang-See, envisioned the project to provide another venue
for advocating patriotism to the Philippines and promoting cultural identity
and understanding between the local Chinese and Filipino communities, after the
acclaimed bi-lingual children's educational television program Pinpin in the
early 90's.
Chinese museum with a touch of Filipino heritage,
Bahay Tsinoy shows the relation of Chinese and Filipino during the early times

Vintage Movie Cameras
We saw a room
full of posters and tarpaulins full of information and timeline how cinema
started and influenced Philippine Cinema and some first newspapers and other
stuffs that were used before.
This is some of the memorabilias found in the 1950's
Gowns of Pilita Corales, Gloria Romeros and Charito Solis that was donated.
We are amazed when we saw the costumes, props, editing machine that were used
back then.Those things will always be part of the good history of
Philippine Cinema.The horror room features the monster and
aliens that were present in different movies and they're so creepy.
If you like to take a glimpse of the good history of Philippine Cinema visit Mowelfund Museum!
