final movie and short story...

The movie that we have watched has several nominees and best picture.. the title of this movie is "Magnifico".. this movie showed a typical filipino peoples living in a brgy., poverty, carnival, gossip etc.. these are sometimes seen in a brgy. in provinces. The story was nice because the child actor brings it naturally, the story is about a boy that helped a lot of people especially his grandmother that he is helping for its near death. but in the end the boy died and he used the home made coffin that he built, this is a very touching story, because you can't usually see or encounter a child like magnifico, i mean the kid is so perfect that he helped a lot of people in their brgy.. well for me even if the story did not end in a tragedy, i think it will still be a happy ending.

Next is the last story which is entitled "Ampalaya", this story is like a science fiction story. the story focuses on the "Ampalaya" which on the year 2050 it is illegal to plant it because one big company is planting it already. the main character of the story "Juan Dela Cruz", he is planting ampalaya for a living and to survive his family, suddenly a group of people came into his home and arrest him and his family.while in court he is found guilty and gave the punishment of lethal injection and reclusion perpetua or lifetime imprisonment for his family for just planting and eating ampalaya.

I don't get it why would they suffer just for a simple vegetable that it is their own, as discussed in class some said that it is possible to see it in the future that only one holds the bussiness like vegetables, meat etc... but i think it is present now a days, because i think rice and cooking oil only one person holds it and i think he is a senator.

another term has passed and i enjoy blogging and listening to reporters and to my classmate that brings the class lively on a boring time.
