mula sa cinemanila:

Sa Biyernes (Feb. 10) na ang simula ng pagpapalabas ng dulang Zsazsa
Zaturnnah ng Tanghalang Pinoy sa CCP. Totoo bang sold out na ang
tickets for its opening night?

Di bale, every weekend ang palabas nito hanggang Marso 5.

Malaking atraksyon ang cast nito -- si Eula Valdez bilang Zsazsa at
si Tuxqs Ronquillo ang alter ego niyang bading, si Ada. Kung si
Darna may kapatid na Ding, ito naman si Zsazsa ay may "delicious"
lover na si Dodong.

Naging kontrobersyal ang kuwentong komiks na ginawa ni Carlo Vergara
noong 2002 dahil tila lumabag ito sa Golden Code ng publishers at
editors dito sa atin na nagbabawal ng "profanity, obscenity, smut,
vulgarity and for sanctity of marriage." Kaya dapat walang "gay"
themes.

Nang lumabas ang comic book na Ang Kagila-gilalas na
Pakikipagsapalaran ni Zsazsa Zaturnnah, nagdagdag ito ng buhay sa
naghihingalong industriya ng komiks sa bansa. Bading ang bida na nagiging babae dahil sa paglulon ng isang bato. Na-inspire si Vergara ng Darna ni Mars Ravelo.

Hindi nagtagal, napili ito ng Manila Critics Circle na National Book
Awardee for Best Comic Book of 2002. Ngayon, isang musical na ang Zsazsa Zaturnnah sa CCP sa direksyon ni Chris Millado, na 2002 Aliw Awardee for best stage director dahil sa
trabaho niya sa Insiang.

Si Zsazsa ay bagong gay icon sa ngayon. Ayon kay Didi na sidekick
niya? "Ada, tayo ay bading. Para sa karamihan, nakahihiya na tayo
anuman ang gawin natin. Kaya huwag natin silang biruin. Lingid sa
kinalaman nila, nakukuha natin ang ating tanyag na lakas sa
pagpapakapal ng mukha. Itaguyod ang bandera, sis."

Cinemanila International Film Festival and Sky Films present the
much-awaited Philippine premiere of Ang Lee's "Brokeback Mountain"
at Robinsons Galleria on February 10, 7:30 p.m.

A leading contender at this year's Academy Awards, "Brokeback
Mountain" won the Golden Lion (Grand Prize) at the prestigious
Venice International Film Festival last year and Best Picture-Drama,
Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Original Song at the recent
Golden Globe Awards.

Based on the short story by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie
Proulx and adapted for the screen by the team of Pulitzer Prize-
winning author Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana, the film tells the
story of two young men - a ranch-hand and a rodeo cowboy - who meet
in the summer of 1963, and unexpectedly forge a lifelong connection,
one whose complications, joys and tragedies provide a testament to
the endurance and power of love.

Academy Award-winning filmmaker Lee ("Crouching Tiger, Hidden
Dragon") comes up with an epic American love story set against the
sweeping vistas of Wyoming and Texas. Strictly for mature viewing
with sexuality, nudity, language and some violence, "Brokeback
Mountain" is topbilled by Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, Anne
Hathaway and Michelle Williams.

The dramatic film has also been named the year's best by leading
critics groups such as the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the
New York Film Critics Circle, the Boston Society of Film Critics,
the Dallas-Forth Worth Film Critics Association, the San Francisco
Film Critics Circle and the Southeastern Film Critics Association.

Other awards and distinctions include the Satellite Awards from the
International Press Academy for Outstanding Motion Picture-Drama,
Outstanding Director, Outstanding Film Editing and Outstanding
Original Song in addition to bids for top honors of such major
Hollywood guilds as the Directors Guild of America, the Producers
Guild of America, the Screen Actors Guild, the American Society of
Cinematographers, the American Cinema Editors and the Writers Guild
of America.
