"El Presidente" is based on Aguinaldo's own memoirs so no way it's "fair and balanced".
But this wasn't much better history-wise, particularly on the whole Cavite shenanigans. It's all very frustrating.
This follows the same outline as "Bayani" from 1992, life to death biopic. A movie in the style of "Bayaning Third World" would be ideal for Bonifacio, he would fit the question of "can we really know the real man (probably not)" even more than Rizal because of the paucity of primary historical sources, and what sources we have are by other people and highly biased, pro or anti. And unlike Rizal or Aguinaldo, Bonifacio can't speak for himself because he left no sources of his own.
The lead actor previously was in "Ang Paglilitis ni Bonifacio", presumably why this one rushed the whole trial part. Come on.
A movie finally shows Bonifacio fighting a battle somewhere other than San Juan (San Mateo) but the timeline is muddled.
Also he was killed Julius Caesar style in this movie, not shot. which explains the kids' rhyme about him.

It's always frustrating whenever a "historical" movie is made in the Philippines, its never accurate. I think the directors, producers and others muddle the truth with artistic fervor which is not in line with the historical truth: shooting with two pistols or fighting with two swords. Making a movie with this significance should have rivaled or gotten close to the recent movie: "Lincoln".

I hear you... I mean look at that new "Death March" movie starring Sam Milby... I cringe. It's so surreal, but it's more the director's artistic expression rather than a historical movie.
Thanks for posting the link to Supremo. I haven't seen this one yet. I'll carve some time to watch it.

The supremo link is just a trailer, but the el presidente link is a full movie. I think there's a link to the full supremo movie from the youtube user that posted el presidente.

you offered Jeremy when preparing her post-graduate research in addition to, most importantly, with regard to providing each of the ideas in one blog post.
If we had been aware of your web-site a year ago, i'd have been rescued from the unwanted measures we were selecting.
Thank you very much. toys for adults
