Pinay sa Elstree baka puwedeng makatulong sa local film industry...
Cynthia Barker

 Baka puwedeng makatulong ang first ever elec­ted councilor in Elstree town and Borehamwood borough in the United Kingdom na si  Cynthia Barker sa local movie industry natin?

Nahalal si Cynthia Alcantara-Barker, tubong-San Pablo City, noong 2015 sa ilalim ng Conservative Party ni dating UK Prime Minister David Cameron. Pero kahit ngayong si Teresa May na ang Prime Minister, kinikilala at inirerespeto pa rin umano ito sa British politics.

(Kasi pala isa sa mga responsibilidad ni Barker ay ang pagtutok sa Elstree Studios, ang no. 1 film and TV studio sa London. “Some of the most famous feature films have been produced at Elstree over the years which include the Star Wars and India­na Jones trilogies, Superman, Moby Dick, The Dam Busters, The Shining, Ice Cold in Alex, and Labyrinth. Over 800 feature films, and similar numbers of television programmes, have been produced at Elstree Studios.

“Most recently Elstree has been the studio of choice for The Da­nish Girl starring Eddie Redmayne and Alicia Vikander, Suffragette starring Meryl Streep and Helen Bonham Carter, Grimsby starring Sacha Baron Carter and Rebel Wilson, Paddington starring Hugh Bonneville and Nicole Kidman, The World’s End starring Simon Pegg, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows starring Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr., Jack the Giant Slayer starring Nicholas Hoult and Ewan McGregor, Under the Skin starring Scarlett Johansson and, of course, multi award winning The King’s Speech starring Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush.

“Not only are major feature films produced at Els­tree, but also some of the highest rated TV shows in the UK including high end TV Drama, Netflix-original series, The Crown, and Kudos Productions Grantchester and Humans,” ang ilan sa mga ginawa ng Elstree ayon sa kanilang website.

“Overseeing Elstree Studios is one of my duties and responsibilities as a public servant of Elstree. I monitor it so that if there are problems like security measures, we are always ready for support,” sabi ni Madam Cynthia sa interview ng katotong si Boy Villasanta.

Imagine, baka puwedeng i-link ni Madam Councillor ang mga producer natin para mas mag-level up ang quality ng mga pelikula natin. Or baka rin puwedeng maging open sila sa collaboration.
