The viewing habits of Filipinos are definitely changing,” according to filmmaker Mikhail Red whose techno-horror film, titled “Deleter,” bagged the best picture trophy at the recent 48th MMFF Gabi ng Parangal. | marinelcruzINQ /PDI
Red dedicated the award to what he referred to as “internet frontliners” or those who work as “cleaners of the internet.”
Meanwhile, best actress award-winner Nadine Lustre dedicated her trophy to her boyfriend Christophe Bariou, who she said is very supportive of the project. “He would visit me on our set or would drive me there sometimes. He understands how tiring and taxing this is because it’s a horror movie. Usually, we would shoot late at night. He’s just there to support me and inspire me. He would always tell me to be in my 110 percent, even during days when I felt really frustrated.
Ian Veneracion, who has been part of the industry for 40 years now, bagged his first best actor award for his performance in Shugo Praico’s “Nanahimik ang Gabi.” He noted that “the movie may be fictional but it has so many layers of truth underneath.”Ian then thanked his costars Heaven Peralejo and Mon Confiado, “with whom I was able to form a unique partnership. It’s like we’re in a dance. It felt really good sharing the floor with them,” he said.
“They all deserve to be nominated, especially Liza Lorena. She’s a natural. That’s also what I liked about my ensemble cast. For me, acting is no acting,” he explained.
