"Kinatay" Won't Be Shown Here

Brillante Mendoza, after winning Best Director at the 2009 Cannes, has decided not to give his film ("Kinatay") a public showing here in the country. But before you say that he's madamot, hear his reason first.

Let's just understand that a movie is like a child to the director. It's his creation, and after winning in Cannes, it's his masterpiece.

We know how movie censorship is. And for that, Mendoza doesn't want his masterpiece to go under censorship's knives.

It will be on exhibition, though, on some universities.
