This movie opened as a Valentine presentation, a very big day for sentimental and romantic films in the Philippines. I had the good fortune of viewing a badly copied video of this film on one of my visits to Manila. Then I saw the film again in one of the afternoon classic movie channels there. One would think it was a corny representation of a love story whose plot had been repeated tirelessly time and time again. It started that way for me because being a fan of Amapola the live concert performer would lead me to view anything she makes. I persevered and found myself in rapt attention of the film (even without subtitles!). Perhaps I am a biased Amapola fan? Maybe, but the the film was very entertaining!
