Ang Lihim ni Antonio

Migs Speaks Entry Feed Trackback

Since “Ang Lalake sa Parola” I’ve become a fan of Lex Bonife and Joselito Altarejos. Here comes another obra from this duo, “Ang Lihim ni Antonio.” The Director’s Cut Premiere will be at the UP Film Institute on February 4, 2008 (Monday). Regular showing will start on February 13 at Robinson’s Galleria, Robinson’s Ermita and Cebu.

* * *

Antonio (Kenji Garcia) is a curious fifteen-year-old boy who is beginning to come to terms with his own sexuality. Although his straight best friend, Mike (Jiro Manio), has been supportive of his coming out, his first sexual conquest has led to the destruction of his friendship with his other best buddy, Nathan.

Antonio’s exploration of his identity unfolds as his family begins to break up. His altruistic mother, Tere (Shamaine Buencamino) is in complete denial that his father has already abandoned them.

A shocking tragedy begins to spiral up as Antonio meets his hedonistic uncle Jonbert (Josh Ivan Morales), who becomes the boy’s sexual obsession.

  25. there… the real color of independent film making has been born in our noble country. some say that this is all about sexual arouementt and indecent acts in the eyes of the viewers. but for real, this pink films gives me the idea to make it in novel. i’m currently writing a story close to the topic but not that too sensual, and not to boring but i can say to all that we can show what we can say, do, and act. im trully support this indie films of the philippines, because without this, movies will be no such thing.

    nikaro at Feb 23, 08 at 4:28 pm

  32. Baka naman may pics ka ni Kenjie Garcia…please post naman…..

    Bloodysith at Jun 1, 08 at 9:11 am

  33. Loved the film. It was such a pleasant surprise that this film delivers more. Sharmaine Buencamino deserves an acting nod for her role. The boys…oooh the boys, arousing and interesting. Unlike Parola, the boys acted more naturally, less self conscious.

    Sobrang nakakaaliw yung dialogue between Kenji and Jiro when the former admitted having sex with their barkada that soured their relationship… Jiro’s questions escalated from “Naghalikan kayo?” “Nag chupaan kayo?” to “Nagtirahan kayo sa pwet?”

    Marikina was featured; such a beautiful, clean city.

    Tito Jo was fuhlaming hot!

    Wicked, wicked ending!

    Loved it!

    Congratulations to Lex Bonife and Joselito Altarejos.

    Your two films stand out.
    P.S. In future films, would there be happy endings?

    RonTab at Jun 4, 08 at 3:15 pm

  34. I can’t help but fall in love with this movie. Brilliant director, excuisite performances by the character. I hope to see more of this kind of movie

    sancho at Jun 5, 08 at 10:54 am

  35. i like the movie of ang lihim ni antonio, it was very good actor and also the director, very touching when i was watch the movie,…. RHEN

    rhen at Jun 11, 08 at 7:33 pm

  36. Maraming salamat sa panunuod ng “Antonio”. Please watch KAMBYO on June 26, 7PM in UP Film Institute. Isang masayang pelikula.

    Jay Altarejos at Jun 17, 08 at 12:43 pm

  37. just saw the movie…i hate to admit but i saw it sa pirated dvd lang…i’ll get the original one, promise! is it out already?

    btw, great movie…great story, great acting esp from ms. sharmaine buencamino (award-winning, in my opinion)…and also unexpected great acting from kenjie and josh ivan…unexpected because it’s the first time i see them in the big screen…and they both have potential…MAD potential esp kenjie!

    of course, kahit minor role lang, exceptional pa din ang husay ni jiro…sana makakuha ulit ng magandang lead role si jiro like magnifico…he deserves another one…

    congratulations po ulet sa cast, crew at lalo na po sa writer at director…

    i’ll be looking forward to kambyo as well…
