NOLI ME TANGERE by Dr. Jose Rizal
Ewan ko pero sobrang lapit ng nobelang to sa puso ko. Nung third year hs, di ako nakikinig sa klase. I dont even remember a single thing during class sa Fil na Noli ang topic. Ang alam ko lang si Sisa na baliw. Pero nung finals na, we were--
Ewan ko pero sobrang lapit ng nobelang to sa puso ko. Nung third year hs, di ako nakikinig sa klase. I dont even remember a single thing during class sa Fil na Noli ang topic. Ang alam ko lang si Sisa na baliw. Pero nung finals na, we were--
tasked to make a play about it and being a grade conscious individual, kinareer ko yun. I'm one of the scriptwriters (plus I portrayed Sisa) kaya talagang binasa ko ng buo yung nobela para lang makapagsulat ng script--
fast forward, 2nd yr college, Rizal Class, pinush talaga namin magFilm kesa sumagot lang ng activities. Pinapili kami between Noli and El Fili and since may bg na ako sa Noli, yun ang pinili namin. Nung binalikan ko yung script nung high school, daming holes hahahha. daming --
kulang at marami rin akong di maintindihan. I was the Director and the scriptwriter "kuno" kaya kinareer ko ulit para sa grades. Since mej nakalimutan ko na ang kwento, binasa ko ulit!!! And I felt something has changed. Nag-iba yung pananaw ko, and I understood it better--
Siguro kasi college na ako and I knew better than my high school self. Yung bawat kabanata at bawat scene sa bawat kabanata, nagbigay talaga ng realizations sakin. How the characters portrayed the life of the Filipinos and the Philippines itself during the colonization--
made me love it even more. Anyway, I made this thread because of Vibal's Live streaming of Kanser: The Musical. Sinabi naman na sa una palang na excerpts ang ipapakita at yung mga kanta so I dont get it bakit madaming rants sa live chat. Anyway, siguro ang makakaappreciate-
nun ay yung mga may pusong devoted dun. Yung kahit kanta lang ang mga pinakita, sobrang tagos kasi alam na alam mo yung scene na yun. Plus the actors are very talented to the point na kahit sa zoom lang sila kumakanta, hinahaplos pa rin nila ang puso mo--
Hay dami ko na nasabi, kala mo naman may magbabasa nito hahaha. Anyways, kudos to Vibal and Gantimpala Theater Foundation for giving us a great way to commemorate our National Hero's natal day. Long live in the hearts of every Filipino, Gat Jose Rizal.
