Sponsored Links |
Well, there you go, as i have earlier said, Baler is one worthwhile film to see among the entries to the 34th Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF). In the 2008 MMFF Awards Night held Saturday evening at the Sofitel Hotel, it managed to garner ten awards. It won for Anne Curtis her first acting award, and a Best Actress award at that!
Baler was also declared Best Festival Picture, and also won Best Director for Mark Meily, Best Supporting Actor for Philip Salvador, and the Gatpuno Antonio Villegas Cultural Award. Manilyn Reynes won Best Supporting Actress for “One Night Only” while Christopher de Leon won Best Actor for “Magkaibigan.”

Jose Javier Reyes won Best Original Story for “One Night Only”; Robert Villar won Best Child Performer (“Shake, Rattle, and Roll X”); and Noli Villalobos for Best Make-Up (“Desperadas 2″).
MMFF Top grossers “Ang Tanging Ina Ninyong Lahat,” which so far earned 41 million pesos in its first two days of showing, was declared the 2nd Best Festival Picture, while “Iskul Bukol: 20 Years After,” which raked in P35.6 million in 2 days, was declared the 3rd Best Festival Picture.
Incidentally, Baler has a 2 day box-office receipt total of P15.2 million to place third among the top-grossers.
…go anne!!congrats!
“baler” deserves it.
=)
Bakit walang award NA NAMAN si Marian Rivera? Is Anne Curtis better than her? Is KC Concepcion better than Marian also, dahil ang movies ni KC ay mas malaki ang kinita? I am interested to hear everybody’s opinion. Nagtataka lang ako. Does it mean that Anne and KC has a stronger public appeal than Marian?
MANILYN REYNES REALLY DRSERVES TO WON THE ACTING AWARD…DAPAT NGA NOON PA NILA BINIGAY KAY ATE MANE YAN…galing nya sa “ONE NIGHT ONLY” iwatched the film say lang ang nagpakita ng ACTING DOON…
BALER DESERVE ALL THE AWARDS CONGRATULATION TO ALL!!!!
congratzz anne!!!!iba tlga ang dyosa…
ang gnda rin ng ang tanging ina nyong lahat ang saya!!
its the must see mmff movie kc sulit anf bayad nyo!!!
xmpre nman star cinema ehhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!
anne curtiss has become one of the most versatile actresses in the philippines. marian rivera still needs to prove her acting skills, if not, enhance it, just like angel locsin did. wag dapat I compare si anne curtis kay marian rivera, ndi pa worth it yung name Ni marian para maging best actress!
ok din nman ang BALER..pro for me,ANG TANGING INA NYONG LAHAT pa rin ang best picture.2nd 2 baler..tpos SRR-X!!well..congrats din!!job well done!!:))
nakakainis and Baler. Anne Curtis…. yuck ang pangit umarte. Para akong masususka. Marian is still the queen of Showbiz industry. Tanong ko lang ano nga ba ang rating ng Diyosa? Zero. Ha!ha!ha!
@ laptop: no, it doesn’t mean na KC and Anne has stronger public appeal. Mas ma-appeal nga sa masa (especially sa mga jologs) si marian. Kasi sa mga awards awards na yan, you don’t need public appeal, you need acting skills. e wala namang ganun si Marian. Anne reAlly knows how to act, especially nung nahasa sya sa ABS. wala yan sa dami ng fans at sa TV ratings, nasa talent yan….at class.
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE WINNERS…I AGREE WITH COGNITO…ATE MANE DESERVED THE ACTING AWARDS…VERSATILE AND MULTIFACETED ACTRESS YAN C ATE MANE KAHIT ANO ATANG ROLE IBIGAY DYAN KAYA NYANG GAWIN…MASKI CHEESY ROLE…NAGIGING BACON WITH CHEESE AND HAM ANG PORTRAYAL NYA…HEHEHE DO GET WHAT I MEAN???? I LIKE HER…SYA LANG ATA ANF KAPUSO STARS NA NAGTAYO NG BANDERA NILA…AND I THINK ATE MANE WILL ALSO LOVED BY THE KAPAMILYA NETWORK GANYAN DAPAT ANG MAGING EXAMPLE NG MGA ARTISTA NGAYON…WALANG KAAWAY…KUNG TALAGANG MAHUSAY MAPAPANSIN AT MAPA2SIN…”MORE AWARDS TO COME MS. MANILYN REYNES SA YOU WILL BE THIS SEASON “GRANDSLAM BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS” MERON PA YAN…
i really love anne tlga… she deserves her first acting awards…. congrats ate anne…..
Hello Susi..I totally agree with you. . .Mas gusto ko si Anne and KC. Perhaps, they also have a stronger public appeal than Marian since their movies are top grossers now a days. . .Marian and Dingdong’s movie in Los Angeles did not make as much $$$. Desperadas did not make it to the top either and Marian is one of the stars.
Nakakairita talaga si Anne. Eh! kung nakatunggali niya si Judy Ann Santos ay sa Kangkongan siya pupulutin.Ha!Ha!Ha!.At tiyaka sa mga taong nandidiri diyan sa mga masa baka at nagpapaclass ay baka mas masahol pa sa kambing.Ha!Ha!HA!.Diyosa. Nonsense.
Im sure ang bagong teleserye ni Marian na babaeng hinugut sa aking tadyang ay magkakaroon ng ratings na ……. 100 …. hindi gaya sa iba zero as in egg 0000000.
So..mainggit nalang kayo ha!
I hate Anne
I luv Iskul Bukol.. TVJ d best!!!
anne is d best! She deserves the award..she has proved a lot in terms of acting…she can do with exemplary performance whatever the role she is playing…
keep up the good work Anne!
hoy!!!!kahit saan mu tignan magalin si anne!!!i love anne alot!!!kasi siya lang ang nag iisang dyosa at wala ng iba!!!si marian kaplog pok pa ila itot na siya!!
at tsaka yung mga marian marian na yan!!!sige compare nyu sa kagandahan ng nag iisang dyosa??!!!!wala kayong binatbat!!!ill stand for anne always!!kasi pareho kaming magaling at maganda!!
Puede ba miss dyosa imitation? Masyado kang agit na agit. Parang ito lang ang ginagawa mo sa buhay. Magtrabaho ka kesa para kang lukaret na putak ng putak. Ang cheap mo!
We like Anne Curtis congratulations your one of the best.
in deed iba ang pag aalaga sa mga talents ng ABS. Mas refined and mas well-breed. Kaya nmn tlgang ngsstand out sila compared sa talents ng GMA. IF you’d see, Marian for instance, they may also have pretty faces but if you’d try knowing their attitude and image on TV, prang walang ka-fines fines, ang palikera magsalita and umasta.
just a piece of my mind.
mga kapamilya, mga engot!!
we hate ANNE CURTIS!!
maarte xa, naduling lng ung judge.
asa kau!!
KAPUSO TO MEN!! =))
the best c anne walang kokontra
ganda nya pa..d sya kagaya ni
marian na iskandalosa..go anne
ur the best..
ahmm.,.
no dought.,
anne deserves it.,.
magaling namn xa talaga eh.,
isa pa,,.
baler lng yung may pinakamagaling na screenplay,.,
compared sa iba.,.
pero maganda rin halos lahat.,
kaso lng,
mas kumita talaga yung mga comedy movies at horror.,.
dahil pampamilya.,.
unlike baler.,.its epic.,
pero mas realistic and maganda ang story,.,
so huwag na lng tayong magreact.,
ok??
go anne,.,
go baler,,.
go mmff entries.,.
♥♥♥,.
haha…”walang ka fines-fines”..is it that hard to spell FINESSE?!?..haha
.close ba kau ni marian at kilalang kilala mo xia?..haha
mga to oh..
“MEMA” din kau e…memasabi..hahaa
haha! san ba galing si anne? diba sa GMA, so may napala ba xa nun andun pa xa? kundi pa xa lumipat sa kapamilya di pa xa mananalo ng award…. hehe e si marian? anu napala ng pagpapajontis kay dingdong? hahahahaha!!!
THIS COMMENT DOES NOT PERTAIN TO ANNE CURTIS. HOWEVER, I FEEL THE NEED TO FORWARN EVERYONE THAT THIS PERSON, ALFIE LORENZO MAY MAKE A BIG DEAL OUT OF ANNE WINNING THE BEST ACTRESS AWARD. I AM REFERRING TO THE “ABANTE TONITE” ARTICLE, WHERE ALFIE HAS INDICATED THAT PMPC CAN BE PAID THE LEAST OF $50,000. TO GET SOMEONE’S VOTE. HE IS PERTAINING TO ANGEL LOCSIN WINNING THE AWARD. THIS MAN IS A SOUR GRAPES AND ONE CAN REALLY TELL THE HATRED HE HARBORS AGAINST ABS-CBN. STILL MAKES ME WONDER WHY HE DOES NOT TAKE JUDY ANN OUT OF ABS-CBN AND PERHAPS BRING HER TO THE MERCY OF GMA. LET’S FACE IT, ABS-CBN IS JUDY ANN’S BREAD AND BUTTER AT THIS MOMENT. EITHER SHE AND ALFIE LEARN TO ACCEPT THIS OR FIND ANOTHER JOB ELSEWHERE. LUMALABAS TULOY NA PAREHONG DOBLE KARA ANG DALAWANG ITO. I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY POSITIVE FEEDBACK FROM HIM IN REGARDS TO ABS-CBN AND ITS PERSONNEL. IF HE HATES THIS NETWORK SO MUCH, BAKIT NAGTITIIS SIYANG DITO MAGTRABAHO SI JUDAY. ALFIE LORENZO WALKS WITH A CHIP ON HIS SHOULDER AND ACTS LIKE A WOMAN SCORNED. BAKIT KAYA?
star of the new decade talaga si manilyn reynes. dapat nga siya nanalo sa bakekang noh! ang galling nya don! at dapat siya din ang naging best female host ata ang moms ang best talk show kasi sila alang ang may kwenta at walng favoritism sa topic at guests! di mga plastic! at may tunay na damdamin na pinakikita!!!
i loved baler even if i’m not a fan of anne. she really did well and the plot of the story’s meaningful. haven’t seen the other movies. but i think baler will still stand out (based on the awards received)
reply to “anne fanatic”: dought is spelled doubt, just for your information =)
uh oh. typed a wrong name. my reply was for samconcepcion fanatic
[...] Manila Film Festival as they have become, has so far earned the most in the entire history of the MMFF. The total box-office receipts for the 14-day period from December 25, 2008 to January 7, 2009 [...]
IT LOOKS LIKE ALFIE LORENZO IS AGAIN BACK TO HIS OLD ACCUSATIONS AND INSINUATIONS. HIS ARTICLE ON ABANE TONITE OF 01/21/2009 INSINUATES THAT THERE HAS BEEN SOME PAYOFFS GOING ON WITH THE PMPC, MMFF
ETC. . . HE CALLS THIS “AWARDS FOR SALE”. IS HE INSINUATING THAT ANNE CURTIS AWARD AS BEST ACTRESS HAS BEEN BOUGHT? THIS IS SAME AS ACCUSING THE JUDGES THAT A PAYOFF HAS BEEN MADE. IF HE STRONGLY BELIEVES THAT A PAYOFF HAS BEEN MADE, HE SHOULD COME OUT IN THE OPEN AND START NAMING NAMES. THIS WILL PUT A STOP TO WHATEVER HE BELIEVES ARE “AWARDS FOR SALE”. OTHERWISE, IT IS NOT FAIR TO THE AWARD WINNERS. HOW ABOUT IT ALFIE LORENZO. WHY DON’T YOU COME OUT IN THE OPEN AND SPILL WHAT YOU KNOW. LET PEOPLE BELIEVE IN YOUR ARTICLE AND NOT DOUBT YOUR CREDIBILITY. . .
I READ ALFIE LORENZO’S COLUMN IN ABANTE TONITE OF 02/08/09. AGAIN, HE HAS INDICATED THAT AI AI’S ANG TANGING INA SHOULD HAVE WON FIRST PLACE INSTEAD OF SARAH’S A VERY SPECIAL LOVE. I HATE TO THINK NA MAY DAYAAN. I HOPE NOT. THAT MEANS WE ARE ALL BEING MISLED. PARANG NILOLOKO ANG MOVIE GOERS. WHAT IS THE BASIS OF THE AWARDS? IS IT THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT THE MOVIE MADE? IF THIS IS SO, THEN ANNE CURTIS SHOULD NOT HAVE WON. “BALER”, AS I HEARD, DID NOT MAKE IT IN THE BOX OFFICE. MALIIT LANG ANG KINITA NANG “BALER”. WILL SOMEONE COMMENT ON ALFIE’S OBSERVATIONS PLEASE. . .I NEED TO BE ENLIGHTENED.
mga wala huya maghambal nga nalibat lang ang mha judge anu gid na si marian compare kay ANN curtis kag KC sa pagwapa gwapa la gid ibuga pambato sang Kanguso sa Kapamilya…ewwwww
