A few things can be said of the winning results in the recently held Metro Manila Film Festival Awards Night held December 27 at Dusit Thani Ballroom.
But, let me focus on Vice Ganda, best actor for "Call Me Mother" by Jun Robles Lana.
His winning tells a lot about how modern Philippine society has evolved and proceeds to evolve through the years. Vice continues to make history as the first homosexual man dressed as a woman to ever win the award commonly reserved only for men. Kaya nga best actor ang title nito, di ba?
The comedy superstar's winning speaks volumes about how Filipino social values have changed in the light of modernism brought about by technological advances and exposure to global trends.
