Pep.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) meanwhile, reports that it was Anna Coren who interviewed Director 'Dante' Brillante Mendoza for Talk Asia last August 3 and on August 4 after the Cinemanila 2009 press launch at Fully Booked Bonifacio High Street. (Actress Anita Linda was also interviewed after the press launch for the same episode.)
The same PEP article also reports that CNN Asia-Pacific Screen Awards are doing four magazine shows that will feature Mendoza and Raya Martin. The show will air in November said Karen Berkman, the show's producer who interviewed Direk Dante and Raya. Congrats to our two filmmakers! They are doing our country proud. This is a great time indeed for Philippine Cinema.
