MANILA, Philippines — Ang agang mag-promote ng surprise entry sa 45th Metro Manila Film Festival, ang Write About Love ng TBA Studios. Starring sa new romantic comedy film sina Miles Ocampo (Maledicto, The Debutantes), Rocco Nacino (Bar Boys), Joem Bascon (Heneral Luna) and Yeng Constantino (The Eternity Between Seconds).
Maraming ginulat ang nasabing pelikula nang mapasama ito sa eight official entries ng MMFF 2019.
Kaya naman nagpa-thanksgiving ang TBA Studios a few days ago. Present at the media thanksgiving luncheon ang TBA’s Chairman Fernando “Nando” Ortigas, CEO Eduardo “Ed” Rocha and President Vincent “Ting” Nebrida. Nandun din ang writer and director na si Crisanto B. Aquino, executive producer Daphne Chiu and TBA’s newly appointed global marketing chief & special projects head, Joyce A. Ramirez.
“Write About Love is a film of many firsts. Aside from it being my first directorial assignment, it is also the first major starrer of (former Goin’ Bulilit star) Miles Ocampo,” says Direk Cris. “I am truly grateful to TBA Studios for allowing me to write, produce and direct this beautiful film.”
Prior to Write About Love, kilala si Direk Cris bilang mahusay na Assistant Director and has worked with the likes of directors Chito Roño, Olivia Lamasan, Rory Quintos, Laurice Guillen, Cathy Garcia-Molina and Jerrold Tarog for both Goyo and Heneral Luna. “Being selected in this year’s 2019 MMFF validates my more than 14 years in the film industry. I started as a Production Assistant and over the years I helmed my craft as a First Assistant Director. I am truly humbled and grateful to all those who supported my filmmaking journey,” sabi pa ni Direk Cris.
Kuwento ang pelikula ng isang young female writer (played by Miles Ocampo) who is paired up with a seasoned indie film writer (Rocco Nacino).
Napilitan silang mag-collaborate and rewrite the script of an unfinished love story (with characters played by Yeng Constantino and Joem Bascon).
