00:05You have three films here, Pilabalde, Tuhog, Cobrador.
00:10They are all gritty, they all make social commentary, they all evoke dirty street slum life,
00:18but somehow they are not preachy, they are not heavy, heavy, dark, dark.
00:23You get my drift. Because personally, you come away from it feeling like life is not so bad.
00:31That life is irreverent, but it straightens itself out in the end.
00:35Did I read your films right?
00:37Yeah, correct. But first, let me thank you for inviting me here and including three of my films in your
00:45Chosen 100.
00:50Thank you for inviting me to have a pageant.
00:57I'm not ready for this presentation.
00:58I'm serious about Q&A. I'm not ready.
01:02But anyway, my two films, Pilabalde and Tuhog, they were not the best of their titles.
01:12They were both written by Binglao and Cobrador, which I was told when it was shown at the CCT,
01:21when it premiered at Cinemalaya, you walked out because you didn't like it.
01:31But anyway, you included it in your 100.
01:43I cannot watch it again because it will make me dizzy again.
01:48Even if it was written by Ralph Stonehoover, it was heavily supervised by Binglao.
01:54So, yung three films ko, the credit should be given to Binglao.
02:00And it's my honor and privilege to be able to direct all three scripts.
02:08But pagdating naman sa treatment ng films ko na light and hindi heavy-handed,
02:15and call ko na yun as director.
02:20Naniniwala kasi ako na humor resonates well with the Filipino audience.
02:26And it is an effective way...
02:30Naniniwala kasi ako na humor resonates well with the Filipino audience.
02:35And it is an effective way to convey the filmmaker's message na hindi niraram down the throats ng audience natin.
02:51Kaya siguro yung...
02:54Kaya siguro ang mga films ko, ang category nila is dramedy or satire.
03:01I love doing satires.
03:03I may look harmless, but I am actually irreverent.
03:07So, ayun...
03:14Ayun...
03:18I wanted officially said I liked Cobrador.
03:22I just got dizzy.
03:37I love you.
03:38Let me see.
03:38Let me see.
03:38I love you.
