Ang Babaeng Humayo

♣♣♣♣/♣♣♣♣♣

1997. With radio reports on the deaths of Princess Diana and Mother Teresa as her soundtrack, Horacia Somorostro (Charo Santos) tills the ground, and then continues with her daily routine which consists of teaching other inmates proper Tagalog grammar and telling them stories that she herself writes on her free time. It’s been 30 years since she got incarcerated for a murder that she didn’t commit, but today marks the end of her three-decade sentence. Her close friend Petra (Shamaine Buencamino) confesses that it was really her who did the crime, before taking her own life. Losing consciousness upon hearing the good news, she wakes up a free woman and asks everybody to keep her newfound liberty a secret. She reconnects with her long-lost daughter and vows to find her elder son who has been missing since she went to jail. And then, she plots her revenge, through the course of which she crosses paths with a perpetually drunk transvestite called Hollanda (John Lloyd Cruz), a lost soul who will change her life.

[AGRA] The Taj Mahal

You already know the story of the Taj Mahal, but fine. For those who have been living under the proverbial rock, let’s have a refresher. Long story short: one of Shah Jahan’s wives died. Yup, Mumtaz was one of the many, but she was THE favorite. What happens when hubby is filthy rich and you are the favorite wifey? You get a mausoleum when you die. White. Marble. Huge. Overlooking the river. Wifey supposedly died after giving birth to the couple’s 14th child. Jesus, did I just type “14th child”? Wow. Quota?
