KASAL

Gala Night screening of KASAL at CCP Main Theater

I'm sure malambing na pasaway ang pa kyut ni Direk Jose na sinabi "..bilisan nyo and pasok at narito sila para manuod ng pelikula." Ha ha ha!

Umpisa pa lang mainit na ang makikita sa pinilakang tabing. Totoo ang halikan ng mga karakter, makatotohanan naman. Bulgar ang eksenang pagtatalik, maganda naman pero medyo hindi nakuha ang tamang angulo ng penetrasyon. Iisipin mong - parang hindi duon yun eh. hehehe.


Maganda rin ang eksena kung saan nag away ang dalawang karakter sa labas ng kotse sa isang makitid at mapunong daan. Hanep, ang ganda nun para sa kin. Pero ng biglang tumugtong yung musika..medyo malakas at biglaan. Sana dahan dahan lang ang score ng musika, wala na sanang lyrics pa. Medyo natuon ang atensyon ko sa lyrics na medyo malakas din ang pagkaka awit. Ibig ko na lang magbasa sa screen kesa pagtuunan yung eksena sanang maganda nung dalawa.


Teka, sana sa ending pala - parehong matanda sana yung kinakasal kahit mga 50's (na discreet) sana. Hindi mga bata pa. Alam mo na pampadagdag iyak sa karakter nung iniwan o iiwanan. Malay mo maiyak din ako. Masaya naman ako sa kinalabasan ng pelikula. Galing galing maraming eksenang maa-alala. Hahaba lang kung iisa isahin ko pa na purihin ang galing ng mga nagsiganap.
