  • Bernal As Auteur: Primary Biographical Notes
    Forum Kritika: A Closer Look at Manila by Night BERNAL AS AuTEUR: PRIMARY BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES Bayani Santos, Jr. Manuel L. Quezon University [email protected] Abstract The paper discloses selected author-considered details on Ishmael Bernal’s family and clan background that can provide further insights on his stature as an auteur, culled from a detailed clan story, which describes the values, problems, conflicts, quirks, and gifts of the clan that nurtured Bernal. It also considers a number of Bernal films and several previously unavailable writings in terms of their content, which indicate confluences in Bernal’s thinking with those of other family members. The paper uses the politique des auteurs, whose proponents uphold the primacy of the director as the creative force behind the creation of a film, although they also recognize filmmaking as a collaborative project. The paper strives to articulate certain manifestations of the visions which were manifest in Bernal’s films as well as his literary output. Keywords auteur criticism, Bernal films, Bernal-Santos family history, Philippine cinema About the Author Bayani Santos, Jr. is a PhD candidate at Manuel L. Quezon University in Manila, where he also acquired his MA. He also holds degrees in journalism (cum laude) from the University of the Philippines and Business and Sector Tech Management from the Netherlands International Institute of Management (RBV) Maastricht. He has won six Anvil and Quill Awards for communications programs in the 1980s and 1990s. He is the founding editor of Who Magazine, and has served as editor of several national publications and at the Spanish International News Agency Agencia EFE.

FEFF 23 will be taking place in Udine and online from Thursday 24 June to Friday 2 July. Press release for 9 June, 2021 For immediate publication/release UDINE – A throwdown is when you get knocked to the ground. It's an action, and even more a state of mind, that inspired one of Johnnie To's masterpieces and which perfectly captures the dynamics - social, political, health and emotional - of the last year and a half. There's no need to go over why - what we need, what we really need, is to stay focused on the "after" part. The action, and even more so the state of mind, that every throw down triggers: that instinct to get back up. The instinct to not stay down there, where the body blows of history have made us fall. That's the idea - we might even call it the operational philosophy - behind the Far East Film Festival 23: documenting the “after”. Showing a world, the world of Asian cinema, which refuses to resign itself to immobility and is intent on getting back on its feet again..
