In
celebration of the 100 Years of Philippine Cinema this year, the Philippine
Movie Press Club (PMPC) will present the “Mga Natatanging Bituin Ng Siglo” (outstanding
stars of the century) Special Awards to iconic names who have shared
unforgettable and remarkable contributions to Philippine Cinema – for many
decades -- and the great impact they made to the Filipinos.
The 35th
PMPC Star Awards for Movies 2019 will bestow this highly special accolade to
the following (in alphabetical order):
Nora Aunor, Tirso Cruz III, Christopher De Leon, Joseph Estrada, Eddie
Garcia, Anita Linda, Niño Muhlach, Ramon Revilla, Sr, Susan Roces, Gloria
Romero, Philip Salvador, and Vilma Santos.
These 12
“Mga Natatanging Bituin Ng Siglo” legendary honorees will gather together on
one stage during the much-anticipated Awards Night on June 2, 2019 (Sunday) at
the Newport Performing Arts Theater of Resorts World Manila, in a special
production tribute, under the direction of Bert De Leon.
A once in
a lifetime honor, this is the PMPC’s way of recognizing these seasoned artists
with exceptional body of work, notable achievements in the Philippine movie
industry, and simply because they have touched the lives of the Filipino people
from their humble beginnings.
The PMPC will
also give honor and tribute to four of the pioneer, senior former Presidents of
the Club by bestowing them the “Outstanding Pillars of PMPC” special award – a
long-overdue recognition and appreciation for their loyalty and dedication to
this group of entertainment journalists, for many years:
Ethel
Ramos (PMPC President in 1969, 1970, and 1973), Ronald Constantino (PMPC
President in 1974 and 1975), Letty Celi (PMPC President in 1988 and 1989), and
Veronica Samio (PMPC President in 1990, 1991, and 1992).
Congratulations,
salute, and cheers to these Centennial Awardees, from the 35th PMPC Star Awards
for Movies 2019!
