Tunay na Ina
In this current epoch that is now inopportunely filled with superficial art, we
cannot simply repudiate that sometimes art deteriorates by its own, especially in
the field of film. Ang Tunay na Ina, however, simply ascertained that Philippine
cinemain spite of the fact that it struggled tremendously during the world waris
one of the greatest and highly acclaimed films. Not only I am astounded by the fact
that it was preserved and survived the war, it remarkably delineated an original,
exquisite plotgiven the fact that it was produced during the advent of war.
Philippine Cinema has this outstanding endeavor for films, and it is actually evident
As has been noted, Tunay na Ina was produced during the advent of war. To
have such atrocity, it is hard to produce Filipino films; however, the aforementioned
Cinema, its technical features were adept and exquisitely exhibited. Incredibly to
discern, the acting was very professional, the cinematography was perfectly
executed as though the perspective of everyone was attained and showcased; also,
their costume, evidently, was filled with effort and it exerted sophistication,
especially the bourgeoisies of the film. On the other hand, the dialogue outstands
other components. Given the epoch of production, the Philippines was colonized by
the Americans, however, the dialogues that were uttered were purely in Tagalog,
and not just in the meekest form of Tagalog, the dialogue possesses highfalutin form

This film, undeniably, is a classic, old film. However, we can still see the
grandiose of the Philippine Cinema throughout the ages. Filipino films have a
similarity with some Filipino films, for instancea plot where characters are family-
oriented, and the plot usually has a melodramatic twist. Unfortunately, you cannot
deny that some Filipino films are very conventional and superficial as compared to
Tunay na Ina. And I must say, this film is but an exquisite, classic film that the
I may have cited that the commencement of the aforementioned film is quite
tedious, however, the remaining sequels of the scene is a must-see! One of the
important scenes is the scene of the aunt of Magdalena concealing her letter for
Roberto. This depicted the start of the battle between the protagonist versus her
problems that she should overcome; secondly, the scene where Magdalena found
her long lost daughter depicted an uprising for the protagonist and a solution to her
conflicts. However, at first, the film may portrayed that the daughter is the solution,
but unfortunately, her daughter is a way to her demolition. And for me, that is the
pivotal part of the film: when her husband knew that she had a daughter, he did not
hesitate to throw her wife Magdalena outside of the house. This depicted the climax
of Magdalenas journey, however, of course it was resolved in the latter part. But
this made the audience felt pity to Magdalena, and I must say, it is a very effective
climax.
Its central characters, irrefutably, made the film more exquisite than its
present state. On that note, one exceptional central character would be Magdalena;
she has a very dynamic role, to an innocent mother drastically transformed into a
radical one. She may be a hackneyed character, but in this particular context, she
a kind of person who would never let conflicts annihilate her sanity. Another
condition.
Their actions are of significance in the film. It does not only merely portray
what they want to portray, but it is a way to create a momentous meaning and to
create a bridge that will connect to the audience. Their actions are responsible for
making the theme of this classic film; and also, their actions are a combination of
dynamic and static portrayal. They have remarkably delineated the theme of love,
got pregnant, to have a husband who does not know her unrevealed secrets, and to
have a son, who eventually died because of a serious ill. And this all happened to one
meek woman. The film may present various issues in life, but all I clearly see is
have a pioneering film such as this one clearly constitutes a lesson that we should be
able to scrutinize. Women back then are stereotyped as excessively susceptible and
extreme hindrances and yet she still had her successful conclusion. Being a woman
does not limit the capabilities of a person, it just merely a distinction whether you
are male or female. Another, I am amazed how tenacious a person can be, albeit of
extreme hindrances that tremendously affected her life. This just simply shows that
the world may knock you down until to the unfathomable place on earth, but it is
your choice if you will fight your battle or let your battle win against you. It may
know that our local films can have the same impact with foreign films. True that the
Tunay na Ina is a blessing and a big contribution in the field of Philippine cinema.
