Holy Week is one of the holidays observed here in the Philippines. It's a time for family gatherings, long lost friends meeting up and high school and college reunions. But for some its a time to relax. So why not give yourself a treat by running those old films and movies again during this Holy Week. If I may suggest, try to look for these classic and immortal movies:
1. The Ten Comandments - It's a 1956 American motion picture and I think everyone have already seen this film. How can anyone forget Charlton Heston as he portrays the character of Moses and Yul Brynner as Rameses II and the very beautiful Anne Baxter as Queen Nefretiri.
2. The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima - releaased in1952, it is a true story about three farm children (Lucia Santos, Jacinta and Francisco Marto), who saw the vision of the Virgin Mary while tending sheep, the place: Fatima, Portugal and the year: 1917 .
3. Oro, Plata, Mata - 1982 film by Peque Gallaga set during World War II in Negros. Its a story of two families coping up with the changes/ consequences of a war.
4. Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos - a 1970's Nora Aunor starrer set during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines.
5. Himala - another Nora Aunor movie release in 1982 and who will forget the famous movie line, " Walang himala. Ang himala ay nasa puso ng tao! Nasa puso nating lahat!"
6. The Nun's Story - starring AudreyHepburn released in 1959 tells the story of a Belgian nun named Sister Luke, is a moving, heartfelt drama, highlighted by an absolutely stunning central performance by the irreplaceable Ms. Hepburn.
