Bakit Madalas Ang Tibok Ng Puso? |
The cast assembled by Zialcita for his movie is headed by the redoubtable Liza Lorena who plays the wife grievously hurt by her husband's infidelity. As the mistress, Laurice Guillen turns in a luminous performance admirable for its sensitivity and control in unfolding the perceptiveness and strength of a mature woman who fell for a married man. Aga Muhlach is a diamond in the rough, combining good looks with an introspectiveness that draws out without straining emotive resources that impress us with their honesty and spontaneity. As the reluctant infidel, Dante Rivero infuses his character with believable anguish that makes us accept his fallibility. When he leaves his wife, the remorse it reveals only serves to confirm the trepidations and hesitancies projected in Rivero's reading of his role. Janice de Belen as the headstrong daughter determined to keep her family together come up with moments that allow us to touch base with very real people. The fact that we are able to touch base with very real people in Bakit Madalas Ang Tibok Ng Puso? and we are moved by their attempts to sort out and accept the little joys and pains of their lives are reason enough to hope again that redemption from the rule of mediocrity and exploitativeness is at hand.
