CESAR MONTANO REACTS TO ATONG-SUNSHINE'S ROMANCE

SINCE THE BUZZ DU JOUR IS Atong Ang's confirmation of his relationship with Sunshine Cruz, I immediately asked her ex-hubby (who happens to be my BFF), Cesar Montano for his reaction. Buboy (Cesar's nickname) and Shine's marriage has long been annulled but their bond remains intact because of their three daughters.

They have put all the "drama" behind them. The ex-couple chose to let friendship prevail. Even BFF's girlfriend, Kat Angeles and Shine, are friends. They are proof that there comes a time when one kind of love leads to another.

Here's Buboy's reaction:

"Saludo ako kay Atong for being man enough to admit his relationship with Shine. I sincerely wish that they will live happily ever after. They both deserve to be happy. When Shine is happy, that means our three daughters are happy, too. And as a father, my daughters' happiness is mine as well."

'ESPANTAHO' AS A HORROR MASTERPIECE

Making a movie is kinda like a chemistry experiment. If you pick the right kind of elements, you come up with a potent combination. Just like in the horror-drama "Espantaho" ("Scarecrow"), it brings together Judy Ann Santos, Lorna Tolentino and Chanda Romero.

What's not to love about such a brilliant collaboration? The Quantum Films' entry to the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) is helmed by the master of Philippine horror cinema, Chito Roño.

Under the helm of Chito Roño, the horror-drama 'Espantaho' brings together Judy Ann Santos and Lorna Tolentino.
