  • Fall of Grace: Nora Aunor As Cinema 46
    Flores / Fall of Grace: Nora Aunor as Cinema 46 FALL OF GRACE: NORA AUNOR AS CINEMA Patrick D. Flores University of the Philippines [email protected] Abstract Nora Aunor is enlisted in this speculation as a medium in the register of both the cinema and the transmission of spirit. The key trajectory is the oft-cited film Himala, which opens up a conceptual space for mediumship, the technology of the actress, her biography and corpus of art, and the devotion to her person. The essay constellates a set of texts including the sculpture in honor of Elsa, the main character of Himala, the film Silip, and the life of a fan. Nora, the performative vessel of Elsa, becomes fundamentally cinematic. It is through her that Elsa is fleshed out as a miracle worker of vexing potency. Nora is herself a testament to the transformative potential of the technology of the cinema. Keywords devotion, film, image, medium, spirit, voice About the Author Patrick D. Flores is Professor of Art Studies at the Department of Art Studies at the University of the Philippines, which he chaired from 1997 to 2003, and Curator of the Vargas Museum in Manila. He is Adjunct Curator at the National Art Gallery, Singapore. He was one of the curators of Under Construction: New Dimensions in Asian Art in 2000 and the Gwangju Biennale (Position Papers) in 2008.

  • Enduring Story of the People's Theater in the Philippines
    Rebecca & Ruby - Sarsuwela In Sarsuwela SARSUWELA IN SARSUWELA: ENDURING STORY OF THE PEOPLE’S THEATER IN THE PHILIPPINES Rebecca T. Añonuevo & Ruby Gamboa Alcantara Abstract The Sarsuwela is a meaningful tradition in the Philippine drama. Unfortunately, the contemporary use of the term “sarsuwela” in mass media refers to the antics of politicians that have tainted the word. This paper explores the real meaning of the sarsuwela since its separation from the colonial Zarzuela of Spanish origin. The sarsuwela in our setting is not only theater as entertainment and spectacle but theater as a community and expression of the Filipino soul and aspirations. Using the combined power of language and music as well as poetry and footwork, the Philippine sarsuwela continues to be relevant, intense, and resilient as a form of social commentary. Keywords: Sarsuwela, Zarzuela, social commentary, mass media, and theater Introduction It is a sad disservice that the term “zarzuela” is used not a few times in derogatory manner in the Philippines. Only recently a senior columnist in one of the national papers used “zarzuela” to refer to what he observed as public entertainment between a member of the Congress and the First Gentleman’s lawyer’s verbal tussle over the alleged multi-billion bank account stashed away abroad by the republic’s First Couple. Why the writer would parallel the antics of politicians to a national form of theater that enthralled audiences for centuries here and abroad reveals either a lack of knowledge, if not a blunt sensibility to the cultural development and history of the genre. On second thought however perhaps the scene is not so strange if we go back to an early accusation against the zarzuela: a “buffoonery” to the assessment of a sullen critic in 17th century Madrid because it lacked the exalted and serious form of the Italian opera patronized by the royal court and the elite in society.

  • Film Industry Executive Summary
    An In-depth Study on the Film Industry In the Philippines Submitted by: Dr. Leonardo Garcia, Jr. Project Head and Ms. Carmelita Masigan Senior Researcher August 17, 2001 1 FILM INDUSTRY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Movies are a powerful force in Philippine society. Movies, more than just a source of entertainment, reflect a nation’s personality. On the silver screen takes shape all the hopes, dreams and fantasies of the common man: legends, love, the stuff of myths and make believe. Its heroes become larger than life, often attaining the stature of demigods. They are looked upon as role models, serving as resources of inspiration. But most important, the movie industry has become a vital part of the national economy. The paper aims to define the industry and its structure, examine the laws that hinder or facilitate its growth as well as the existing associations and what they have done; look into the market potential of the film industry and its foreign market demand; examine supply capability; identify opportunities and threats confronting the industry; prepare an action plan to enhance competitiveness; and recommend a performance monitoring scheme. The film industry shows that its gross value added is growing faster than the gross domestic product and gross national product. In other words, the industry has a lot of potential to improve further through the years. Extent of growth of firms is primarily Metro-Manila based with Southern Tagalog as a far second. There is more investment in labor or manpower than capital expenditures based on the 1994 Census of Establishments. Motion picture also called film or movie is a series of still photographs on film, projected in rapid succession onto a screen by means of light.

Casumbal Thesis Committee: Michael Shapiro, Chairperson Kathy Ferguson S. Charusheela ©2004 Melisa S.L. Casumbal All rights reserved. 111 Carmelita San Luis Casumbal Roberto Reyes Casumbal IV ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Sa aking mga ninuno - ako ay nagpupugay at nagpapasalamat. My deep admiration, respect and gratitude extend foremost to the professors on my thesis committee whose pedagogies, scholarship, mentoring, good humor, and radical politics have inspired me to continue pursuit ofa career in the academy, despite my better judgement. I am especially grateful to my committee chair, Michael Shapiro, for not only apprehending, but modeling, my weirdly discipline-transgressing interests, and for the consistency and generosity ofhis support. I am also deeply grateful to the more officially transdisciplinary (double-burdened) Women's Studies scholars on my committee, Kathy Ferguson and S. Charusheela. I thank them both for modeling feminist women kicking ass in what remain intensely masculinist fields (political science and economics, respectively). I owe a special debt to Cham, who pushed me in exactly the direction I needed to go at exactly the right time. Thank you, also, to the other professors whose formidable intellect and charm I have so greatly benefited from during my time at UH: Noenoe Silva, Nevi Soguk, Sankaran Krishna, Jon Goldberg-Hiller, Barbara Andaya, Ric Trimillos, Lindy Aquino, Ruth Mabanglo, Imelda Gasmen, and Sheila Zamar.
