Sec. Teddy ‘Boy’ Locsin pinangalandakan na napaiyak din kina Alden at Kathryn

Pinanood ni Department of Foreign Affairs Secretary Teddy “Boy” Locsin, Jr. ang Kathryn Bernardo at Alden Richards movie na Hello Love Goodbye, at dahil dito, lumutang ang husay niya sa panulat nang maglabas siya ng tila review ng pelikula na idinaan niya sa Twitter.

Bumilib siya sa kuwento ng pelikula at husay nina Kathryn at Alden. Naluha rin siya sa pelikula.

“1. I watched Hello, Love, Goodbye. Thank you for a handkerchief. Not saccharine sentimental. Right from the first line this is the finest script I’ve ever read – matching situation, characters, moments in flawless synchrony (I could have done subtitles better here & there.

“2. One of the hardest things to full of is a long confession, with the camera on your face as you reel off your small life’s story. (He is not the Venetian warlord Othello, just an OFW). Alden pulls it off without an awkward instant, holding your attention and your heart.

“3. When it’s Kathryn’s turn, in a different way, she pulls it off just as finely. I needed the movie starts off as a contest the astonishingly moving performance of Kathryn Bernardo as she kick- starts the movie already believably in character and keeps a grip on it.

“4.  Alden’s first moves fail to take one iota of attention from her because he is in his superficial character, the playboy. She’s too strong.

“5.  But eventually it seems – yet all in just minutes of their encounter – he grows into what she becomes in the first stand: a fully developed character. By this time I am waiting for something off key But it doesn’t. Just the smooth…

“6. Unfolding of the character the two portray Tears gather at the corner of one’s eyes. This is the Filipino abroad; specifically Hong Kong, city of childhood and entire life’s affection. The movie gets it right: this is what lfe for Filipinos since Independence to now…

“7.  And tomorrow without end. Forget the official bullshit This the most beautiful love story I’ve ever seen on screen, and they more; it is life story, the story of many lives, and it ends as it has to: inconclusively with the lovely pair standing then sitting precariously…

“8. On the edge of a precipice and she says, “I’m afraid. Alden Richards, Kathryn Bernardo, get up from that rock careful you might slip – but you don’t throughout this masterpiece, not a slip. Get up and take a bow before grateful audiences the world over.”

Dagdag ni Sir Teddy Boy, “The world belongs to the young portrayed, symbolized by Alden and Kathryn/Ethan and Joy.

“Thank you for the most realistic, no concession to sentimentality met beautiful portrayed of the Filipino as an Artist of Struggle – ever graceful even grateful for the pain. Salamat.”

Take note, film critics, sa husay ng panulat ni Sir Teddy Boy!
