Epy Quizon happy over support for film ‘Heneral Luna’
MANILA, Philippines – Epy Quizon is both thankful and surprised for the good response that their film “Heneral Luna” is getting from the public.
Although Epy also acknowledge that there are still some who cannot appreciate such films, especially in the dawn of romantic-comedy films.
“I guess hindi pa rin ‘yon ang market. There are certain areas that people line up, while some dalawa lang ang pumapasok sa cinema. We’re really in a weird transition in this film industry,” he said in an interview on Wednesday.
Despite this, the experienced actor believes that this type of film is necessary to continually remind the Filipinos that there were people who selflessly offered their lives for the country.
“It’s a film that brings you back to characters where we see streets named after them and we see monuments erected for them,” he said. We forget our heroes, we forget these people and we cannot forget these people.”
This is why he thanks everyone who calls for a longer run of their film in different cinemas in the country.
