PLOT:
The film has a well expected plot given that I am a Filipino. Here in the Philippines homosexual couples usually don't have a happy ending but they were able to experience happiness with that person once in their life. This kind of settings is quite ordinary I think.

ACTING SKILLS/CAST:
The male leas was one of the male lead also in the first ever BL web series in the Philippines. I like him and I don't know why, hehehehe
The Acting skills was quite good I was not just satisfied by the other male lead.

MUSIC:
I don't quite gave enough attention with the music because I'm used to the music that was being used in most of the Filipino films out there.

OVERALL:
This kind of film was produced by some independent film industry in the Philippines. This kind of movie was usually recognized outside the country because it shows the reality of life in the Philippine setting with the specific group of persons playing the role. It was a good movie though.

A deep and visceral film with four nominations at the Star Awards for Movies 2008 for those who don't mind the Pinoy style of narration and processing, the film is not a typical Pinoy piece in my opinion. It has a relatively decent plot, there is not so much naivety and Asian theatricality in it, and the music is excellent. It is only where it is needed and underlines the scene perfectly, rightly the music received one of the nominations. It is from a life, a rough life, two childhood friends. Of course, the Filipino view and perception of prostitution and sex cannot be missed, when gay Enzo, after leaving for Manila, starts making a living from hetero porn, while his childhood friend, heterosexual Maynard, makes a living as a gay prostitute and callboy. Both actors Ken Escudero (Enzo or Lorenzo) and Will Sandejas (Maynard or Adong, he appears here on GT and in the movie Santuaryo, and also in the movies Paupahan and Kumpisal, which we don't even have here on GT yet) are very pleasant, characters, which they play, they managed very well and the character Melang (Ashley Silverio) is also important to the plot. Enzo's mother Norma (Sylvia Sanchez) impressed me with her excellent acting. Enjoyable and I recommend it even to those who don't like Pinoy movies. On MDL under the name Unspoken Passion - here the film is not completely completed (cast)
