ICYMI : High movie prices may have driven Filipino audiences away from film theaters, according to presidential adviser on creative communications and film director Paul Soriano.
During a hearing for House Resolution 451 from Deputy House Speaker Camille Villar, which aimed to promote local film production and revive a “Golden Era” of movies, the recent Metro Manila Film Festival was brought up as only a selected few movies saw financial success.“The only reason why I think there is only one or two big [hits] is because the general public can only afford to watch one film, or maybe two at most, so that’s why the other five or six films don’t get seen,” said Soriano.
Soriano’s film “My Teacher”, starring his actress wife Toni Gonzaga, was not counted among the MMFF’s top earners, and the movie currently has 3.5 out of 10 stars on fan and critical film review website IMDb.
