Getting personal with Ms. Vilma Santos
Just after the holidays, the star for all seasons, Ms. Vilma Santos met with a handful of us, entertainment writers for her post-Christmas treat at Le Souffle in Rockwell Club.
A sit-down with the sensational Sharon
In showbusiness, ‘sensational’ is adjective usually applied to newcomers who distinguish themselves through phenomenal success or by achieving something avante garde. Yet even with almost 30 years tenure, megastar singer-actress Sharon Cuneta still appropriates the term for herself almost every time she comes up with much anticipated projects that give fans fresh angle of her artistry.
Rocksteddy: As steady as a rock
Life is a gamble. It is like a game of teks, a popular children’s game. Once the magic word "Tsubtsatagilid" has been shouted and the cards have been flicked up into the air, you never know if card will drop face down ("Tsub") or face up ("Tsa"). All you can say is "akeyn" hoping your card will land face–up.
‘Pag-asa ng Bayan,’ a film dedicated to the Filipino youth

Fantastic storytelling
Every fantasy movie that banks on special effects will now be measured against the works of Peter Jackson, "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy and "King Kong," all of which are hard acts to follow. If it’s not compared with these films, "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe" by Andrew Adamson ("Shrek") will no doubt be proclaimed a superior fantasy film. Honestly, though, after we saw its trailer, we had sky high expectations and these were not exactly met when we saw the complete movie. Our reaction right after it ended is: We’ve seen it all before.
