Movie Marathon Again

Last night, I watched two Filipino movies - love stories.



 I watched "Till My Heartaches End" first. A movie starring two of the most famous actors/actresses in the Philippines - Gerald Anderson and Kim Chiu.

It's a movie about one girl having a boyfriend for the first time and a boy who finally finds the one he truly falls in love with after having many girlfriends in his past. They both have family problems but it isn't the main problem they are facing since the problem is the girl is focusing too much on the boy, she doesn't want to open up to anyone and widen her world anymore that's why they always fought. The boy grows afraid that they may hurt each other and that they could end up hating each other in the future if the problem isn't solved and the only solution he knows for the better of both of them is to break-up. Going on with their separate lives, they accept what they think they understand while they face the family problems they have been facing since childhood. They take that chance to fix up everything while they're on their own and one of them knows that they broke up not because they don't love each other anymore but because they love each other too much, they had to.

The other movie, on the other hand, is about family and love relationship. The actors/actresses in the movie are Claudine Baretto, Anne Curtis and Richard Gutierrez.

The older sister Ciara takes responsibility for her younger sister Julia since their mother died after giving birth to the latter and their father followed soon after. Ciara works in the United States and Julia followed after receiving her student visa. Storm, Julia's boyfriend joins her with a tourist visa.

To gain immigrant status, Julia desperately asks her sister Ciara who is already an American citizen, to get into an arranged marriage with Storm.

Storm and Julia starts to drift apart as Julia has been always busy with her studies and work leaving more time for Storm and Ciara to be together. Thus starting an unexpected love affair. Julia learns about this and Ciara breaks up with Storm for Julia but Julia is too hurt to accept her apologies and efforts.

This puts the sisters' relationship in jeopardy and they struggle to live without each other but the story goes and of course, I won't be putting what the ending is. You have to find out on your own.

Maybe I'll watch another movie today but I'm not sure. Whoah! It's already 1:30 PM here. I have to take a nap for tonight's plans. Ho-hum!
