“HIMALA.” Its restored version will be screened in December.
Nitz Melicor, film enthusiast: “ABS-CBN should be commended for restoring Ishmael Bernal’s ‘Himala’—an enlightened move! The 30-year-old movie is one of the most talked about films in the local industry. Its commercial screening in December will surely delight film buffs!
“Other films worth restoring include Eddie Romero’s ‘Ganito Kami Noon, Paano Kayo Ngayon?,’ Peque Gallaga’s ‘Oro Plata Mata,’ as well as Mike de Leon and Lino Brocka’s acclaimed classics.”

Jonathan Catunao, electronics engineer: “I watched the marathon recap of TV5’s ‘Enchanted Garden’ and was pleasantly surprised by its quality. I thought it would be illogical and trashy—but, I was mistaken! The story isn’t bad, and the action scenes are well-executed. Also, the portrayals are good, especially the one turned in by BB Gandanghari!”
