Manila, Philippines- The country’s one and only Superstar and National Artist for Film and Broadcast Arts Nora Aunor will have turned 72 this May 21.
And what better way to celebrate it than release a tribute film in her honor sa mismong kaarawan niya?
May libreng screening ang pelikulang Faney na idinirihe ni Adolf Alix Jr., produced by RS Francisco.
Nagsimula na ang shooting nito last May 12.
It would take all of four shooting days bago iparebyu ito sa MTRCB sa May 19.
Tampok sa pelikula sina Laurice Guillen bilang Lola Bona, Althea Ablan, Angeli Bayani at Gina Alajar.
Interestingly, Laurice originally played Bona in a teleplay bago ito ginawan ng film version that starred Nora.
Si Lino Brocka ang director ng Bona shown in 1980, produced by Nora’s film outfit.
Kapwa sina Laurice at Gina ay nakatrabaho na ni Nora sa ilang pelikula.
Ayon kay direk Adolf who had directed Nora in a number of films–the last being Mananambal–ang pelikulang Faney ay pinagsama-samang kuwento ng mga Noranians na nakadaupang-palad niya sa burol ng Superstar.
Matatandaang Nora passed away on April 16, Holy Wednesday.
Sa Heritage Memorial Park itinakda ang kanyang lamay.
Huwag sanang palampasin ang nasabing tribute movie na ito kay Nora Aunor. Ronnie Carrasco IIi
