"Himig Himbing: Mga Heleng Atin," a project initiated by the CCP, was designed to celebrate and nurture Filipino heritage through songs and lullabies. The event, which took place on November 5, 2023, at the Tanghalang Ignacio Gimenez (TIG), was an unforgettable celebration of Filipino cultural identity and also served as a book launch for "Himig Himbing."
This year, "Himig Himbing" introduced a fresh dimension with the addition of eight new music videos, each featuring lullabies inspired by the meticulous research of esteemed ethnomusicologist Sol Trinidad, with musical arrangements by Krina Cayabyab. These videos were directed by some of the most renowned Filipino filmmakers in the industry, including Zig Dulay, Jerrold Tarog, Sheron Dayoc, Doy and Ida Del Mundo, Ma-an Asuncion Dagñalan, Vic Acedillo Jr, Arden Condez, and Christopher Gozum.
Years later, King would read it again from the perspective of an adult – and he found new things to love about the story! “When David [Heyman, producer] mentioned the idea of making a Wonka movie, I read it again and realized it also has an incredibly rich, almost Dickensian emotional core,” shares the director. “Charlie is such a kind, decent little boy and his family’s poverty causes them such suffering. The fact he goes on to inherit the factory, a more wonderful gift than he could ever have dreamt, had me in floods of tears – and the prospect of trying to make a film which captured Dahl’s spirit was too exciting to turn down.”
The heart of any slasher movie is the kills, and Eli Roth – the genre’s maestro – would make sure that Thanksgiving reflected his best work.
“Every kill had to meet our standards of scare and gore,” says the Thanksgiving director. “If the movie didn’t deliver on its promise, we’d be dead.” And Roth had the added pressure of having done it already when he made a fake Thanksgiving movie trailer upon the request of his friend Quentin Tarantino, as part of the latter’s Grindhouse double-feature with another fan-favorite director Robert Rodriguez. “I found myself not just trying to match what I did in the trailer, but trying to top it in every way possible,” continues Roth.
