Media Law - Shai

1. Course: BA Film 2. Favorite Books: If Tomorrow Comes by Sidney Sheldon. This book is full of amazing plot twists, you never know what's going to happen next. 3. Favorite Film: Tinimbang Ka Ngunit Kulang by Lino Brocka. This film points out how people in the society treat the few marginalized such as those who suffer leprosy and those who are mentally ill. Brocka links the sectors in the community (church, family, government, etc.) and show us how these groups react to the protagonists of the story. 4. Favorite Media Practitioner: Lino Brocka. Through the years, even after Brocka passed away, his films continue to flourish among the masses, especially the youth. Socio-political and socio-economic stories that wander around the theme of injustice reflect how Brocka’s perspective of his beloved nation. 5. Favorite Song: In My Life by The Beatles. My father is a huge fan of The Beatles so I grew up listening to this song every Sunday since it is his favorite too. 6. Favorite Meal: Anything barbecued/grilled. The smokey taste you get in grilled food is just the best.
