Rosario is a based on a true story by Manuel V. Pangilinan’s grandmother. It is one of the entries in 2011 Metro Manila Film Festival. It is maybe the last movie of the great Dolphy. It’s a period film. I have nothing to say about the customs, the music and the direction. They are artily at best. Also the whole cast, special mention Jennylyn Mercado who’s perfect for the role of Rosario. Her last scene with with Sid Lucero is without any dialog and just facial expression is touching and unforgettable. It’s just a single moment and I was moved by that scene. It’s one the best moment in Pinoy cinema. But one of my best complain about this film is that, it’s suppose to be an erotic film with artistic sex scenes or artily skin exposure. It needs to be a rated R film and not a PG-13 movie. Watching this film feels like I am watching a sanitized or censored erotic movie. But then it’s easily forgiven.
REMARKS: It has one of the greatest single moments in Pinoy Cinema.
STARS:4/5
