Real Life Fiction (2024)
Written & Directed by: Paul Soriano
This is a movie within a movie.
While watching, you’ll never know which scenes are entirely true. There’s an invisible line between reality and fiction.
Pwede silang makalusot sa kahit anong kapintasan o kaguluhan na meron ang kanilang mga eksena. Kapag may napansin kang hindi makatotohanan, ang pwede nilang ibwelta ay hindi naman talaga totoo yun. Kathang-isip lamang yun.
Sa ganung paraan tumakbo ang kanilang pelikula.
Paglalaruan ka nang mahigit isang oras. Masyadong matagal dahil halos paulit-ulit lang naman ang ibang nangyayari. May ilang detalyeng sumusulpot tungkol sa totoong katauhan ng mga karakter. Dahil sa mga impormasyong iyun, mas nagkakaroon ng saysay ang ilang eksena. Makakagawa ka ng sarili mong kwento base ruon.
As the movie plays around with their scenes, different versions of truth will also play inside your mind. After watching, audiences will have their own unique movie experience depending on which parts they’d like to believe is true.
If one likes to believe that this is a coming out story, then no one can take away that experience from them. If someone likes to believe that Toni Gonzaga appeared in this movie, then that’s something we also cannot invalidate.
Ano ba ang gusto mong paniwalaan?
Kahit ano pa man ang gusto nating paniwalaan, hindi natin maitatanggi na masyadong pilit ang pananalita nilang lahat.
All throughout the film, everyone is speaking in English and it doesn’t sound natural. Also, there’s a lot of fleeting conversations. Dialogues feel like they’re coming out from pocket books. Most scenes look like a music video. Sex scenes look like a photo shoot.
The movie is dwelling more on fiction, losing touch of reality. The two sides didn’t have a good blend. You’re more fixated on the film’s concept than the main character’s story.
Peke man o totoo ang ipinakitang istorya, hindi naging malakas ang kapit mo sa pangunahing karakter dahil mas naging bida ang mga paandar ng pelikula.
