Actress and TV host Toni Gonzaga talked about the lessons she picked up after seeing the new paradise flick “Siargao”.
Gonzaga posted an Instagram photo on Monday which featured her husband, the movie’s director Paul Soriano, reading a script against a backdrop of a glistening blue sea.
She wrote in the caption that while watching the movie, she learned to be still, be patient and allow the story to grow on her.
Eventually, she felt like she was no longer in the cinema, as if she was transported to the island itself, following intently the story of the characters.
“It’s simple, direct, raw and real,” Gonzaga said. “No big gestures, just pure and heartfelt scenes that speak straight to your heart.”
Soriano’s wife also believes she fell in love with the movie because she knew “where the director’s heart is, and where he is coming from.”
“You are more inspired in this film and I can’t wait one day for Seve to see what his daddy worked hard for,” Gonzaga wrote, ending her post on a sweet note with a reference to their son.
The film, which features a love triangle story between Jericho Rosales, Erich Gonzales and Jasmine Curtis-Smith, opened on Monday as part of the 43rd Metro Manila Film Festival. JB
