MANILA, Philippines ? The Movie Workers? Welfare Foundation, Inc. recently screened Ishmael Bernal?s 1982 film ?Himala? in Metro Washington DC and in Carson City, Los Angeles.
Mowelfund head Boots Anson-Roa said the movie was picked as a fundraiser for showing to Fil-Am communities, because it was earlier voted as CNN?s Best Asia-Pacific Film of All Time.
Lead star Nora Aunor attended the Virginia screenings. Roa said the actress? drawing power proved undiminished. ?And she was professionalism personified,? related Roa. ?She traveled to the venues on her own, showed up on time, and even helped in the kitchen.? Bayani San Diego Jr.
