I have never missed a Vilma Santos film. She has always been in movies that are thought-provoking and feel-good, and played roles with so much depth. In My Life - is no different. It is once again a movie that left a smile on my face when credits started to flash at the end. Now showing in moviehouses this month. (I suggest you see it before finals come in much closer - iba kasi pag movie house, kaysa sa pyrate.. eheste DVD :).
It is the best film I have seen this year. No kidding.
Vilma portrays a mother, old-fashioned librarian in her 50’s while her children, 2 women who are married and a son, who works in New York now have lives on their own. I could so much identify with the storyline, since it parallels to a family like mine who has 2 older sisters who are now married where one who is working in NY, and that though we communicate via mobile and internet, it is undeniable that we have become apart due to differences in continents, time, space and priorities. And our parents would be missing us or have thoughts of being alone now that their children are busy with their own lives to live.
And what makes this story very unusual, and daring is that 2 popular young leading men, portray roles of a homosexual couple living together in a NY apartment, and then Luis’ mom, Vilma Santos who will also portray as his mom in the film will barge in from the Philippines and starts to live with them. It is a drama and no non-sense comedy (and not slapstick) that lifts the heart and gives moral lessons to people who love with no boundaries, no matter what they are. It is the kind of love in its highest form, to love a person not for who they are but what they can give, despite their imperfections.
Vilma portrays a different kind of mother who learns to love her son’s boyfriend. Luis Manzano in his portrayal as gay is highly commended. It is not pilit or O.A., if you know what I mean. And incredible, John Lloyd portrays a gay guy, but doesn’t change from the boy-next-door personality that we always adore about him in his films and tv drama.
Hanggang dito nalang muna. Ayokong maging spoiler e.
If you want to understand what I mean, go see it 
My mom and the maids and driver are seeing it at the moment, with my encouragement, as I study all alone in the house soon as I finish this.
