We all love the Oscars, the glitz and glamour and the red carpet. I just wish they'll choose the perfect winner, simply put giving more credits to the film itself regardless who the actors are in the film. I also hope that someday, Philippines would have a nominee for the Best Foreign Language Film, after all, we're producing quality films.
