“T-Bird at Ako”

Directed by Danny L. Zialcita, this 1982 classic tells the story of lawyer Sylvia (played by the late National Artist Nora Aunor), who tries to keep things professional between her and her client, Sabel (Vilma Santos), a dancer who accidentally kills a man out of self-defense after he attempted to rape her. The film also stars Dindo Fernando, Tommy Abuel, Suzanne Gonzales, and Odette Khan.

“Mga Anak ni Facifica Falayfay”

Released originally in 1987, this film is a sequel to the late Dolphy’s classic “Facifica Falayfay.” In “Mga Anak,” the death of Facifica’s (now Pacifico, played by Dolphy) wife deeply affects one of his sons, Rodrigo (Roderick Paulate). As Rodrigo tries to discover and get to know his true self, he tries to seek acceptance from his father. Zsa Zsa Padilla, Lotlot de Leon, Eric Quizon and Rolly Quizon are also part of the cast of the movie, directed by Romy Villaflor.
